2 ohm bridged stability is a pretty rare thing for 2 and 4 channel amps. The Boss definitely isn't. You can bridge it and wire the subs for 8 though -- that should get you maybe 300w to each sub. |

when bridged - the amp would be optimal at 4 ohms. That much you can be sure of. As far as the power -- well 260x4 @ 4's a lie, and 500x4 at 2(1000x2 bridged at 4) is most definitely a lie. It has 2x25A fuses which tells me it would be unlikely to produce much more than 600w - which is where I got 300w each to a pair of 4 ohms subs. If you bridge it into 8 ohms (I'm assuming you have dvc 2's) it would be less than 600 (or whatever it's best possible power is) but not by a lot. |

If they're dual 4 ohm then grab 1000w rms at 1 ohm. Hifonics bxi 1206d can be useful for you. Post the ratings on that concept. |

the12volt.com hit the link woofer wiring. You should set your gain with a DMM if it's true the output of that amp which i doubt. |

your 2 options with a pair of dvc 4's are 1 ohm or 4 ohms. With a pair of 600w subs I don't think 1 ohm would be a reasonable option. That's 1200w per sub. 4 ohms isn't great either because it only gets you about 300w per sub, but underpowered subs are better than blown subs. That amp should bring you pretty good coin on ebay -- it should more than cover a decent amp that's around 1200w at 1 ohm. |
