I have a 760w max Pioneer amp. It's a 2 channel, bridgeable amp. Bridged at 4 ohms, it's rated at 380rms. I currently have it bridged running to a 1x12. My problem is that when I crank up the volume or a bass heavy song comes on my lights dim, even my dash lights. So obviously I'm pulling too much juice.
My question is since my amp is 2-channel, instead of bridging it, can I run my sub off of one channel which would be 125w rms? Wouldn't this draw less power? Also would this harm the amp since I am using one channel and not the other?
Also, I just ran 8 gauge power and ground wires made sure the amp had a solid ground.
Thanks
