I have 2 speakers: 4ohms, and 2000 Watts peak power capacity.and 1 subwoofer: 8ohms, and 1600 Watts peak power. How should i set up an amplifier?

You can mono block the sub with one amp and u will need a second for the 4 ohm ones. There are a series of switches on the back for whatever suits your needs. http://www.manualslib.com/manual/214185/Behringer-Europower-Ep2000.html. I have 2 - 2000s and 1 - 4000. These amps are very versatile!

I have sent you 3 answers but Amazon is failing to deliver them. contact Amazon, because you need some serious adviceSteve

Root mean squared is just a type of average, so it's saying that you get an rms average of 300 watts for 1 4 ohm speaker. With two speakers, depending on how you wire them, you can get 2 ohms of resistance, giving you 500 watts rms output or 8 ohms, giving you closer to 200 watts rms output.

If you're getting one sub, get the one with dual 4-ohm voice coils. Wire them in parallel for a 2-ohm load on the amplifier for 500w to the one sub. If you're getting two subs, get the dual 2-ohm version. Wire the voice coils in series for 4 ohms per sub, then wire them in parallel to the amp for an end load on the amp of 2 ohms. This will give you 250w per sub.

It will not be too much. However, you will need to be sure the amp is 2000w rms not peak. Each speaker is a 1500 watt peak 400 rms. Make sure your amp can output enough to support both.

3600 watts will probably be a bit too much for this amplifier. I use mine for about 600 watts RMS between two subwoofers and I need 3/4 gain to power them. Im betting you would need one amp on each speaker cab for your system.

Two pairs, A & B, plus ONE SUBWOOFER. 8 OHM speakers are advised, lower than 8 will increase the likelihood of overheating in the amplifier. In addition, read up on wire gauge to be sure you use the correct wire to minimize heat buildup.

You should do some more research as answers vary. Are you running 2channel? Bridged? Read the instructions, I don't recall the output in each mode, but it depends on the resistance of the speakers. Seems to me 250w rms speakers will do fine with that amp...

if ur going to go with that then get 2 2000 watt amp's cuz u won't have enough to get the max useage of ur speaker's...have fun...

It's just 4 Chanel's you'd have to get a 2nd amp to power a sub or give up 2 speakers. I wouldn't recommend a 2nd amp since the 200 watts is just perfect for the 4 midrange speakers. these sound great by the way.

well if your looking to go to the peak power 1600 true watts i have 2 on a 1200 watt amp and they sound good id probably get a 1500 watt mono block hifonics amp the one thats one ohm stable and wire the subs to one ohm and they will sound great

I have a 3000 watts Amplifier and I'm using 2 Pyle speakers PADH212 1600 each, and it works great, perfect sound, very louder, I love it.

an 800 watt amp might be a little overkill to drive two of these. I run two of mine on a 400watt pyle marine amp and I can max them out. I just used a regular 16 gauge speaker wire. They sound great!

That depends on the amp you have, it wouldn't be smart to connect two different subwoofers to the same amp, maybe get two amps, one for each sub, just make sure the wiring is done correctly for the best sound and a long lasting system

If it was the dual 4 ohm voice coil subwoofer it would be fine, the way you'd have to wire the dual 2 ohm version won't give the sub enough power (wired in series for 4 ohms). The amp I got was tested to put out 631 watts rms total, but wiring is the problem here.

I did some brief reading about how to match amps and speakers, and my understanding is that the amp's power rating should be less than that of the speakers--around half the peak rated wattage. But as well as power you have to make sure the impedance of the speakers matches the output impedance range of the amp. If you're running two 8 ohm speakers in parallel on each channel, that's actually 4 ohms, so check those numbers. We use this Grace BTAR122 in conjunction with two 80 watt Polk Atrium 4 speakers and it sounds fantastic.

This is kinda difficult. It's rated at 440 watts/8 ohm stereo and 820 watts/4 ohms stereo. If daisy chaining Bridged, your speakers would be 4 ohms at 1,000 watts (8 ohm divided by 2=4 ohm load) Normally you want around 100-200 watt headroom on your speakers. If those speakers have a higher peak output than 500, say 800, you should be safe in running out the bridge mode output to 1st speaker then parallel to the other speaker. You want to not under power the speakers nor overpower them.

I checked the specs on this amp and it is two ohm stable. No need to bridge. With just these 4 speakers and single amp, you should get 100x4 @ 2 ohm(RMS). Which is within the range of the speakers. The Peak power is 235x4 @4ohm, which may be slightly higher @ 2 ohm. This is just above the recommended power for the speakers, which should not pose a problem as long as you don't max out the gains and volume on the head unit.
