I am looking into getting a Brahma 12. I think I'll probobly be putting it into a sealed enclosure. My question is what is the best way to wire it. I have two Directed 600d's (the 1999 version) they are externally syncable. what is the best way to wire the sub? Externally bridged with the VC's in parallel, one amp on each VC? any other suggestion are certainly welcome but I think I'd rather not buy a new amp. thanks in advance

I'm not to familiar with the Directed amplifiers.  However I really don't recommend strapping amplifiers unless you really know what you are doing as there is huge potential for mishap.  Because of this, I would recommend just using one amp on the Brahma.  You might be surprised at the output you will have.  In fact adding twice the power (similar to hooking up that second amp) doesn't give you as much gain as you would expect.  Good luck!

BTW, you can contact me directly in the future by e-mail at skephart@adireaudio.com.  This will also allow me to forward your question to our tech support who are a little better at answering these questions than I am.  Also, this would have been a great question to ask to the general public as I'm sure many here have more experience with that amp than I do.
