i depends if you get the quad are you going to run more than 1 amp to it and what amps are you going to be running ??? if it was me i would go with the quad and put 2 or 4 amps on it and us a scope to set the gains

Just get what ever voice coil set up matches the final load you want to have your amp see. Like if you have a 2 ohm stable amp, go for a dual 4 ohm model, or quad 2 ohm, if you want your amp to see a 1 ohm load go for a dual 2 ohm model, or quad 4 ohm. Dual would be easier and less of a head ache tho.
