Is better to get 2*K10 or 1*K20 , thinking ahead will build 6 more sub with the PD 2151

Want only powersoft in the rack .

2 x K10s.

Even if only for redundancy and flexibility.

What i was thinking is this one amp for every 6- 2151 . will a K10 pust 6 bins with no problem?

2 x K10 is way better than single K20.

Not going bellow 4 Ohms per channel loading is also mandatory to save dynamics, headroom and efficiency of the system.

It'll be fine - I run 3 x WS18X's a side of a K10 and it loves it.

I'm going to offer a different rout. 

You want to power 12 big ass 21s. 

I would suggest that you probably want 3x K20 to do this nicely. 


So depending on your budget, buy 1 or 2 now and 2 or 1 more when you build your next 6 bins. 

Bonus of this set up is, Since a K20 will power 6 bins, probably not too there max, but do the job all the same. 
With 3 K20s in the rack, if one was to go down, you could keep going. 


....

The above advice was worked out using logic, I have no experience of these amps and so you will need to verify they will indeed perform to the level required.

Maybe im underestimating these amps / cones power requirements... 3 k10s might be adequate.

Like I said I've not used these amps. Really i was just suggesting to go 4x 21s per amp.


Probably some one who knows what these amps can do should be giving advice, not me...

K20 loves 2 ohm loading, really brings it alive. you will NEED a good stiff 32A supply per amp though.

has anyone got experience in bridging k6/8/10?

with multiple amps it might be a a solution per pair.

I've got tapped horns with faital xl1600 and considered that it might be fun to try bridged pairs. threes might be possible as impedance barely gets to 3.5 in 3's. just haven't bothered as i hadn't got around to making a few suitable cables.

Running k10 with them in stereo normally and also have three outline t9/k8 now. this may be a cheaper solution than 3xk20? especially if you intend to stay just powersoft across the board.
