Summary:
Yo you dont know what the h**l you doing. I have a profile cl 800 hooked up to 3 mtx 6000 12's and I hit a 146db. You need to check to see if your amp burnt out or something.

Summary:
I actually have the CL800 and when it's wired in LP stereo mode for my subs, this thing barely lets out anything. My 6.5" coax has more base coming out of it...seriously! I had 2-Polk EX10 rated at 150 rms each and nothing came out of the subs with this amp. The cones were barely even moving. This amp is supposed to be giving out 200w rms per channel. I tried all sorts of wiring with this amp; Even had the Crutchfield Tech helping me out during the process. Still had nothing! Finally I decided to wire both single voice coil subs in Parallel to let one of the amplifier's channel read a 2ohm load. FINALLY! a decent thump! If I were to spec. this amplifier I would GUESS each channel probably puts out 70watts x 2 at 4ohm; 100watts x 2 at 2ohm; and 200watts bridged. When it comes down to it, the price is right. It usually costs a buck per watt for higher line amplifiers. All I can say is do not waste your money! Get something else. Do not let the Chrome and Amp Specs mezmorize you. I judged the amp by its cover. All it left me with was frustration and an empty pocket.
