ok a few monthes ago i got into spl i was going to get two alpine type s with two 800 watt 2 channels but i found out that would make it run a meesed up ohm load so i got two alpine type Rs with two Vpower 1000 watt monoblock i was wondering if i tune the amps WAY down would i be able to split them instead of running one 4 channel
i hit 143.2 DB in an 01 eclipse i just got my jimmy cant wait to see what i hit

So you have two TypeR''s and a single mono amp? What are you trying to split and what exactly do you mean by "running one 4 channel"

ok, sorry for the poor english
i have two vpower 1000 watt monoblocks so two amps two subs
i want to run my interior speakers off of two 2channel amps 800 watts each my question is would the 2 amps work on my interior speakers
will this work instead of running a 4channel amp to my interior speakers

Your first post makes sense, I must have misread it the first time.
Like vin791 said, it will work fine. one amp to the front doors and one for the rear doors. I don''t know of any speakers that can take 400W though...

2 two channels will work but why not just use 1 4 channel?? its easier to deal with and less wires

he already has the 2 channels i think?
and i''m guessing they''re 800 peak 1 ohm and that''s why he didnt have them pushing subs because not very many amps are 1 ohm stable. so 400 peak each channel 1 ohm. 2 ohm 200 each; 4 ohms 100w each. but thats a guess.
what speakers you running inside? type s?

MOSFET Power Supply
PWM Circuitry
Full Selectable Crossover HI/Full/Low
Three Way Protection Circuit
2-Ohm Stable Stereo
Tri-mode Capable
Variable Low-Pass 40 ~ 250Hz.

so would it be 150 watts to each speaker?

yup. that looks like a perfect fit. be careful not to push the soundstreams too loud. theyre advertised at 150 but i wouldn''t crank em that loud. especially because your HU probably puts out a few watts ontop of the 150 the amp is pushin. good luck, and let us know how everything turns out
