So....i have been testing some rcflf18x451 in some scoops recently. Drivers are power hungry and are 1800w continous at 8ohm. I tested a 5k monoblock across two and four scoops however the amp was running out of steam well before the drivers started moving....

I then played two scoops across an inf8mk2 in 4ohm bridge giving a supposed 7k watts and the difference was immense...that said the amp was clipping well before the speakers reached their capacity.

Looking for reccomendations outside of a powersoft k20 to see the true potential of the drivers. What do you think?

Linear research 44m20 would be my choice of weapon, it is Rated in RMS unlike powersoft which is rated in peak watts which is a worthless figure.

Different driver, same manufacturer using the same power rating method.

These were far from being fried....linea research amp looks impressive but in the k20 region where i cant currently invest... looking for other heavyweight options
