the 10's are 500watts max, 250 RMS. i'm going to be running two amps setup to the same cd player. they are both home theatre receivers, except one is higher end then the other (one is 600 watts and the other 1200). i figured i could use one to power the speakers (run two channels two one series and two channels to the other series) and one for just the subs...
would this be okay? approx playing time is going to be 45-60min now
