Team Bassick - Kimo Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 ouch the t7158....I don't even know why offered this configuration as the amps that were available at the time could not come close at 8ohms. If they were the 4 ohm version each I'd more than take them off your hands. Let me know a price via pm if you end up going another route.
