I have a question can i run two channels into one sub to get more watts going into the sub cuz i have amp with the options below and i want to get two amps for each of my 800 watt subs and i was wondering if this amp would be suitable to push one of my subs to make it have a lot of bass and good sound

The 2004 A235HCT high current amplifier comes with a heat sink

35W RMS x 2 @ 4 ohms stereo	70W RMS x 2 @ 2 ohms stereo
100W RMS x 2 @ 1 ohm stereo	70W RMS x 1 @ 4 ohms mono
140W RMS x 1 @ 2 ohms mono	280W RMS x 1 @ 1 ohm mono
High current circuitry	Multi staranded power supply toroids
Double sided glass epoxy circuit board	THD: 0.05%
S/N ratio: > 100dB	Frequency response: 10Hz-40kHz
Remote bass control with blue backlight knobs	Variable 24dB high-pass crossover: 50Hz to 750Hz
Variable 24dB low-pass crossover: 50Hz to 120Hz	Variable bass boost: 0-18dB
Variable bass boost frequency: 40Hz-100Hz	Throughput RCA connections
Variable subsonic Filter: 20Hz to 45Hz	4-way protection circuitry: Thermal, short circuit, overload and DC offset
Dual cooling fans	VU meters indicating output response

If you are talking about bridging the two channels in this amp to drive one sub, sure you can do that. This Audiobahn will probably put out a realistic 200 watts into 1 ohm. But if you are talking about using TWO of these amps to drive one sub, then no, you can't do that with these.

Again, if you are planning to run two seperate amps to one sub, DO NOT DO IT. If you are talking about running two CHANNELS from one amp (i.e.: operating a stereo amp in BRIDGED mode) than that is OK.

So which is it?

If you are going to buy on-line (like e-bay), make sure that you get some kind of warrenty (whether it be from the manufacturer or the dealer). You never KNOW for sure that the product you are getting will work right or not, so don't take the chance and get a warrenty.

I don't know why you are insisting on Audiobahn, but if you're locked in to this brand for some reason, the A8000T mono sub amp would probably be a better choice in the same price range than either of the two you have listed. What subs are you trying to power?

what are your sub ratings?

If we learn from each success and

each failure, then we can improve ourselves
