Hi,

Would an infinite 6 v2 be enough to power 2 punishers in 4ohm bridge? Im not too sure on wattage required some people say 1500+ others say dont go above 1000.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.

What driver are you using, and what settings on your LMS?

ciare 12.00sw, hp 39hz lp 95hz 24db/octave, currently dont have them but those are the settings that have been recommended to me, just trying to find the right amp for when we do.

That amp is not suitable for 4 ohm bridge for bass.

Read the manual.

This is what the manual says:

"Infinite 4 to 6 V2 amplifiers are only stable into 2 ohm loads per channel when driving midtop

speakers, i.e. from 100Hz upwards. The minimum impedance for bass use must be 4 ohms

per channel, i.e. two 8 ohm speakers in parallel from each amplifier channel."

2 ohms not 4.

4 ohm bridge = 2 ohm pr. channel.

So the answer is NO.

So maybe just best off buying something like an infinite 8 and running 2 per side @ 4ohms?

This is kind of confusing, why am I seeing people running 2 cabs into 4r bridge off a cheap berry ep2500 and getting good results, yet can't run it off an inf6?

because the infinite 6v2 and the behringer ep2500 are not the same design amp lol :P the infinite 6 v2 when running in 4ohm sterio is a pretty awesome amp tbh itd be my first choice if i was looking for something to power 1200w into 4 ohm per side if weight and cost wasnt an issue :P infinite 8v2 iirc can happily handle 3 puns per side iirc toasty ghost????

Results are not always good.

Just because people do it, doesn't mean it's a good idea!

I use a inf6v2 on my high mids and it sounds lovely

I'd look out for an inf8v2 or inf7v2 perhaps as this will do what you want

Thanks for that sinai really clearrd everything up. I'll keep my eye out for an inf 8 or similar.

Because of cash flow im going to have to go with a t.amp proline 3000 for the time being. Would i be best off running 2 of these in bridge, or get the 4 ohm drivers and hang one off each channel?

4 ohm per channel is better than 2 ohm per channel. So yes buy the 4 ohm drivers, damping factor will be better and the proline is a very good budget amp, spank the puns!

Cheers Dutch, Ended up just buying an Infinite 8v2 so much less hassle and saved 6u of rack space compared to 3 prolines for 6 punishers. Using the infinite 6 to power the kicks in an xtro.
