I have seen 2 different spec sheets on the ARC 2075SE.
Both rate it at 100wpc into 4 Ohms, and 175 into 2.

One states 350 Watts bridged into 1 Ohm (which, to me, implies about 350 Watts bridged into 4 or 2, as well, based on outputs listed above.)

The other states 350 Watts bridged into 4 Ohms, and 300 Bridged into 2.
I can't find a review where they tested the power or measured power vs THD.

I'm wondering how much juice I can expect, bridged into a 2 Ohm load.

Basically, on a pair of BM MKIV's, 4 Ohm VC's wired in parallel for a 2 Ohm load, but subs not wired together: is there an advantage to bridging a 2075SE into each woofer, vs running a single SE2150 (300wpc at 2 Ohms) in stereo on them?
Finally, is 300 watts enough for one of these for max SQ and plenty of headroom, or should I really try to get closer to, or exceed, the 450 Watts max?

Thank you for your help and insight.

Ah, forget it.
Between the SI website and MKIV "Price Reduction" thread, it looks like I won't want to exceed 450 Watts, and 300/ea to a pair should be more than enough.

I'm confident the 2075SE will do the job on my tweeters.

So I'll stick run with the SE2150's on the sub-bass drivers, and only think about going up to an SE2300 or KS600.2 if I , somehow, manage to find them lacking. Which I seriously doubt, since a single 10 on 300W is -nearly- enough for me as it is.
