    you know nothing about amps I know that now a magnum s9 does not produce enough power to drive a straight 8 pill linear... get on the phone and ask any amp builder that..... I'm still now totally lmao at you

    A single sd1446 slightly underdriven would be ideal for driving 8x 2sc2879's.
    Only takes 2.5 watts carrier to drive a single 2sc2879 multiplied by 8 = 20 watts carrier to drive 8x 2sc2879's..
    A little bit goes a long way.

    call any amp. builder and they will tell you what I just told you... a s9 cannot and will not drive a straight 8.... be a man for once in your life and admit your wrong because you are...it's that simple

    It will underdrive it at half capacity just fine.

    if ya want to under drive it so be it.... I know my magnum drove it at least a year with no problems.... and it actually ran cool as stated by your thoughts and someone said the same thing to me in the last couple of days. like I've said before put a radio on a wavenode.digital swr watt meter and you realize with a quickness your radio does not do the watts you think it does. and yes that includes my s980/350
