I have a Hartke HA2500 amp head (new to Hartke, had GK800RB before) But I love it- my question is, and I have looked on the specs- but cannoit seem to get a definitive anser. Can you run the HA2500 with two 8 ohm cabinest (4x10 and 1x15)?

So far, I've had no issue running a Hartke 4x10 with a GK 1x15 bottom. Thumps nice! Only problem is, this set up seems to attract law enforcement (and I play in a COUNTRY band!!!)

Great amp for price. I don't see why it wouldn't. I would definitely run it at 1 ohm stable to make sure you have enough power then if it is too much then consider running 2 ohms. I'm not sure on the power handling of the l7s but either way I think it'll be a great set-up. Enjoy. .....

Let me tell you this,in two ohms it puts out the power ... Four ohms if you just want it to be okay.. I have it running a 4 ohm 10. Inch rockfordfosge in a sealed box and it sounds good. I also have a dual 10 inch power bass and I ran it in two ohms in a sealed box and it hit real hard and low. But I'm not sll that into bass,I like to hear my highs and mids so I kept the fosgage in the trunk instead of the power bass.

Yes this amp is capable of running a 4ohm bridged load. But to be honest with the low power rating on your subs it could be overkill to use the amp in bridge mode. It's pretty stout just running at 4 ohms a side. You could do high pass and low pass with the built in crossover and runs your tops ans subs on one amp. I use this for my bass rig and run a 4ohm load per side. It screams....

Not sure about the ohms without digging up the paperwork. I have 2- 300wt speekers and i'm very happy with the amp. No remote control is my only issue.

Absolutely. I'm running two P3's that are 4 ohm DVC. I have them wired to 1ohm and they freaking pound.

I have not tried this amp in a 1ohm load. I have the Kicker CVR 12 (4ohm subs) wired for a 2ohm load and they pound! This little amp doesn't even get warm at high usage for long periods of time. Hope this helps.

I have 8 ohm B&W; cs1 speakers and use 6ohm without an issue. I'm not sure why they didn't design it for 8ohm

As long as there's a 16 ohm speaker out, it should work great. You DON'T want to ever mismatch ohmage, I've learned the hard way; you WILL blow your amp. Maybe not the 1st time, maybe not the 2nd time, but it WILL happen. Just sayin. Congrats on your gear. Enjoy. Rock On.

You can definitely run your 2 subs whit this amp if they ate dual cabinets youll have a 2 omhs load per side which is fine. Then youll need another amp tobrun your tops. If you run you'll compete rig with this amp is not recomended cause youll have an 2 ohms load which is not recomended for this type of amp. It also depends in your gear's specs.

I have an alpine mrv-m500 amp that gives 500 RMS at 2 ohms. It still hits hard and sounds great. But as long as the amp can handle a 2 ohm load and has at least 600 RMS your fine I would check out some amps on here that have those specs and I only have one sub not two!!!

This amp is 4 ohm for bridged mode. I don't see anything but 8ohm for parallel.

If you are going to use a single 12" it is better if you get the dual 2 ohm as this will come down to 1 ohm and most amps would be 1 ohm stable in this power braket. 1000 rms at 1 ohm is good enough to shake this beast. Doesnt need more.i have used 2.5 and 3 cube boxes. 3 is better. It is not a low frequency sub so dont tune too low. 38 hz is lowest i would go. It is loud though !!! Excellent value for your money. Just remember to break it in well before you turn it up.

Use 8 you'll be fine. If you use 6 or 4 you will potentially trip the excessive power limiter and the amp will shut down. If you limit the volume on 4 ohm, it will work. But, if you over drive a 4 or 6 ohm load, it will shut down and you'll have to shut off the amplifier and turn it back on.

I believe so. The manual instructs using 8 ohm or 16 ohm speakers and the power handing spec in the manual is 4 Ohm load. I have been chaining two 8 Ohms each on L and R monitor outs and would do the same on the mains in a live setting. Clear as a bell at rehearsals and still lots of headroom available.

You should be safe. Because I'm running 2 cx122 boss with a 2600 watt amp 1 channel.

If it's got two 4ohm voice coils and you wire it for a 2ohm load to the amp, it should sound great. I have one 10 in a sealed box rated at 700w rms I'm running at a 2ohm load on the amp and it sounds excellent.
