I know for a fact the amp can do this on stereo (2x50W RMS). I was just wonderin how much RMS the amp cranks out at 8 ohms (running them in series bridged) if it is rated at 1x150W RMS at 4 ohms. I would thinking 75W but I could be wrong. Will I even tell a difference?
Just run your subs in stereo 4 ohms per channel for now then. One sub for each channel. I assume your subs are 4 ohms from your post. That would be the ideal resistance of the amp and would help it last the longest.
