u need a 2 ohm class d amp because that amp is 2ohms per channel or 4ohms bridge ur subs r dual 2ohm so u can only hook them up at either 1ohm or 4ohm per channel! Or 0.5ohms and 2ohms bridge

the crunch amp is 2ohm stable per channel his subs r dual 2ohm. They can only be wire up at 1ohm or 4ohm per sub per channel or the amp can be bridge at 4ohms but the 2 subs wired together can only be wired at 0.5ohms or 2ohms. So which part of this do u not understand

He can wire the subs at 4ohms per channel but then he will be getting only about half the power

why don't u tell me why he don't need a class d ampClasses of amps are related to the circuitry and how the power is switched and distributed throughout the amp. In no way is it manditory to run a certain class amp....
