Hell..I'd take both this amp and the 'twin brother' that someone piggy-backed on that thread.

If only Icix's database wasn't fubar right now.

I'm trying to email or PM both of those guys to call 'dibs'.

Penta: If you know either of them, tell 'em I got 'dibs'! I think those units would be ideal for what I'm trying to achieve.

*** edit: I emailed the 400.2 guy from his email address on the thread, and the 800.2 guy via his eBay handle. Sure, this is a little spur-of-the-moment, but both seem like decent amps and good prices.

Penta: if I'm going with the 13ov.2 sub, would I want the dual 2 or dual 4 ohm...if I'm going to bridge the 800.2 into it?

That 800.2 amp is rated for continous use at 4 ohm when bridged (800W RMS x 1 channel).

So, I would get a dual 2 ohm voicecoil sub, wire that sub's voicecoils in series. This will present a 4 ohm load to the amp.

This is assuming you will only be using a single 13Ov.2

Then a dual 2 ohm voicecoil sub is what I'd recommend. Those amps look pretty clean and the prices seem good.

That setup on a 13ov2 would get loud low and nasty

I still haven't heard from this guy...Emailed twice, eBay messaged him twice...not so much as a whisper in reply. Icix Forums is going nutty on me when I login or try to PM the seller from there.

I bought the 800.2, so I want a match for my components.
