wiil a 900 watt 5 channel amp work for 2 400 watt subs?

Question

i was thinking about buying a 5 channel 900 watt amp for 2 400 watt subs.it has a max power output of 400Wx1 @ 2 ohm
and i was wondering if this would work

Answer 1

If you got a 5 ch. amp, you'd only be able to use either 2 ch.'s @2Ohms each or bidge 4 ch.'s into 2@4Ohms each.

Get a 2 ch. amp rated @ or right above your subs RMS power rating.
For ex. if each of your subs are 400wrms, get an amp that gives them 400wrms each -at the right impedance.

Good Luck!

Answer 2

Why would you get a 5 channel amp for two subs, get a mono or a two channel. and its impossible to answer your question, you need to provide more info, how much rms everything is and what ohms everything is

Answer 3

yes as long as your amps smaller than your max sub watts your fine

Answer 4

if your just using it for your subs your better off getting a mono amp. are the subs svc or dvc and what ohm are they? if svc 4ohm you can get a 2ohm stable mono amp. its easier, you get better power and usually cheaper

Answer 5

400Wx1 @ 2 ohm
If your woofers are 4 ohms single coil yes this amplifier will owrk
