2 amps @ 0.5ohms each will be approx. 0.5db louder than one at 0.25ohms

Thanks for all your answers guys. I will take a decision soon. Maybe 1 or 2 competitions in Ontario this summer if all goes well in Quebec.

Street A would prolly be best with what ya got... over 150 can be done with a the power you got

it takes me bout 1900watts to do 150.6db, so really its all in the box

I have a good idea of the box that I want but I work 60-80h per weeks until the end of April and I don't have the time to work on it before. The car is brand new and all the equipements are in my house. I have a lot of work to do before my first burp. Nothing will be ready before June. Which frequency can I expect with this car?

Mathieu... it's a lot of work but I'm sure you'll do very well with anything you decide to do

The pic shows how to bridge two standard amplifiers. The pic looks like the amps are strapped to me...
Thats because a standard mono amp is strappable anyway...if you read the manual and know anything you would see that this is taking mono amps that don't have the master/slave switch and strapping them...all it is doing is providing both amps with the input they need so you can strap them but these are mono amps that you could strap anyway...this is not a magical box and does not take 2 channel amps that are internally linked like the D3 and make them strappable

You asked... Why do people keep thinking it... I responded. Why do you talk down to people and try to make them look stupid? Is this to make yourself look better? Beware of the cocky Dentist.

the rules state that in street B only one amp or 2 strappable amps can be used... since the D3 is not a strappable amp, it can not be used even with the maxx-link. But there is a way to strap 2 D3's... just look at how the D10's are strapped.
