Chris Rogers Posted December 11, 2009 Share Posted December 11, 2009 neither. two amplifiers - one decent sized mono and a decent 4 ch. it was your last comment that killed your idea.

Carbon 34 Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 neither.two amplifiers - one decent sized mono and a decent 4 ch. it was your last comment that killed your idea. I run a 4 channel amp to a DVC sub, but in separate chambers ,( until I get my sponsor to cough up some amps..lol ) I bridge two 4 channel amps and run each to a 1.6 ohm load in bridge mode per coil , which is 2x 12 inch DVC subs I think what Chris was saying is your subs are more then likely sharing the airspace in that box, if you run either of those amps to 1 sub and not the other it wont sound good and could cancel the bass all together. without knowing how the sub and box is wired/partitioned off inside I would say no, unless you run it like mine with 2 of the same exact amps , partitioned box. and set the gains to match exactly with advanced equipment. if you can only run one amp, and the subs are DVC you can run all 4 channels in bridge mode or stereo but its not optimum to say the least. and neither of these amps are what I would purchase to run subs. if you have both of them already .....then run the alpine to the subs in bridge mode a pair of channels to each sub depending on the models , Ohm loads etc. and the pioneer to the fronts Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/299772-which-is-better-amplifer/#findComment-4983459 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shiraz200SX Posted December 14, 2009 Share Posted December 14, 2009 to add another choice, the MRP-F300 is a $399 amplifier, i'd go and get a KAC-9104D for $449 (they're $599 rrp, but most places discount the ass out of them) and make about 700-900wrms and fold those subs in half....

ashsalmun Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 I currently use an MTX RT202 for my 10" subwoofer, and have not had many problems.I believe it would easily run the Pioneer Splits,I have used my 202 to run my pioneer splits and they worked great, but I wouldn't know first hand about the clarion splits.
