I am currently running a Orion 8002 amp briged to 4ohms(to 4 10", 4 0hm subs wired in series/parallel).
would it make any diff. if I ran it a 2ohms per channel instead?

Currently the power is CRAP! i had 2 little Apine MRV-100M's that killed this amp. Could my car not be giving this amp enuf power?
I am using 4 awg power and ground too

thanks in advance people

4-ohm bridged is the same as 2-ohm stereo.

I actually asked my boss which is the best way to wire up subs. He told me that it is better to use the stereo wiring instead of bridged, although I believe the difference is VERY small. I can't remember why though. I will have to find out.
