What is with all of these subs having dual 2 ohm voice coils (i.e. stryke AV's, Adire Brahma's)...do they just expect everyone who gets them to get two? It seems very impractical and expensive too get 1200 watts in a 4 ohm load and almost all good amps now run safe at a 2 ohm load...it's just rather annoying for those of us not looking to buy two subwoofers.
Buy a 2ch amp and run it in bridged mode with your single sub presenting a 4ohm load (guessing 2ohm DVC). There are a slew of amps out there (for $200 and under) that can put down 500w or more into a 4ohm mono load.
BTW, mono amps that are stable at 1ohm are becoming more and more common.
