well.......if I am reading your manual correctly - its going to have to go 8ohm, which sucks ass. try to hook it up like I showed, see if it will produce a 2ohm load........

wait........can't you run 1 channel to each voice coil? or am I just stupid tonight?

he would only get 110 watts per voice coil which isn't much, plus I think that would be bad because the dual voice coils are supposed to work in unison and with what you said they would be getting different signals since it would be in stereo.

if he hooks it up bridged in 2ohm he is liable to blow the amp or it will keep going into protection mode.

that's a good question, you might not get the 350 watts if you can.

my amp would work perfect, but you would have to do some major butt kissing to Rubberfrog as he already has dibs on it. I'm not looking to trade sorry...just sell.

since you are using the amp just for a sub I would suggest a mono block amp. Since the sub is rated for 400 watts you would want at least a 400 watt amp that is 2 ohm stable.

The amp I am selling is a Kicker ZX400.1 amp. I am selling it for $150 shipped, but like I said Rubberfrog has dibs on it.
