So those white, blinged out swap meet looking amps are close to the ti line?

Not sure which amp yer talkin about nutxo, but I think the LE Octane he's talking about looks like the one in my avatar.

ok....so a breif timeline:

in the late 90's

there was

TI (high end)
XS (mid)
qx (low)

then tantrum replaced the xs line. very similar internals.

then octane-r replaced the qx line with similar internals.

ti and tantrum were canceled. xenon then came out with ti like features (missing a couple, but surpassed it in other areas) also was at near tantrum prices

then ryval replaced the octane-r with noticeably better internals.

then xenon was canceled and rsd replaced it. they were stripped of a few features, but still quite strong

1 ohm bridged or stereo?

1 ohm bridged = 0.5 ohm stereo, which is way too low for that amp. It's optimized for 2 ohms, stable at 1 ohm, but 0.5 is way too low, and could easily cause damage.

4 woofers each channel 1 ohm

Welcome to the Phorum!!!!!!!!!!

what kind of woofers do you use?

tanks a lot for the welcome
i use RES FCO180 (modified) RES is an italian factory that can customize theyr speakers so we give them some specifics to set up the woofers
btw they work from 80hz until 160hz
