Customer Q&A
Q
I have 2 (6-8) 25 watt, 4 (6-8) 350 watt and 1 (c12) 300 watt kicker subwoofer. Can this amp run all of that?
A
It prolly would run all that just fine but I would think you would need a multichannel amp instead of a mono block.

Features
Mono Amp: The SoundStream RS1.8000D is a single channel subwoofer amp. The low pass crossover is always engaged, so the amp does not offer full-range output.
Power Output:
- 4Ω: 1,200 watts RMS x 1-channel
- 2Ω: 1,700 watts RMS x 1-channel
- 1Ω: 3,000 watts RMS x 1-channel
Wired Remote: A wired remote level control is included. The remote has integrated flanges and screws are included to mount the unit under the dash. It includes a 19' cable to connect to the amplifier.
Remote Dimensions:
- Width: 1⅝" wide (2⅝" including the mounting flanges)
- Height: ¾"
- Depth: 1½" (1⅞" including the knob and cable)
Controls:
- Level Control (Gain): rotary dial labeled min/max; adjustable from 0.2 Volts to 8.0 Volts
- Crossover: the low pass and subsonic crossovers
are always engaged (they cannot be bypassed); the slope of both is 12
dB/octave:
- Low Pass: rotary dial; 40-150 Hz
- Subsonic (High Pass): rotary dial; 10-50 Hz
- Phase: 2-position switch; 0° and 180°
Connections:
- Power Input: The power and ground connections are set screw terminals; they will accept up to 1/0-gauge wire.
- Remote Turn-On: The remote turn-on connection is a set screw terminal; it will accept up to 8-gauge wire.
- Speaker Output: The speaker output set-screw
terminals will accept up to 8-gauge wire. There are two pair of
outputs internally wired in parallel, making it easy to connect
two subwoofers.
- Note: All the set screw terminals are tightened/loosened with a Phillips head screw driver (not included)
- Line Input: The amplifier has one pair of RCA input jacks.
- Line Level Output: The amplifier also has a pair of RCA line level outputs for feeding another amplifier; it is the same signal that is input through the RCA line inputs. The amplifier's crossovers and gain controls have no effect on the line level output signal.
- Remote: The wired remote cable plugs into the RJ-25 jack (phone type) on the amp.
- Fuses: The amp has two 80-amp MAXI fuses.
