so, originally i was supposed to get a 1600 watt 2 ch amp but the guy was sold out so he gave me a 1000 watt amp and told me to come back to exchange it when he gets more in supply. so when i go to exchange it, he gives me a 1200 watt amp but he says its mono block power. does anyone know the difference between the 2? thanks

You've been ripped off already. that's the MADLIB for being riped off. sorry man... yes i said it damn it. THE MADLIB FOR BEING RIPPED OFF!! okay let's break down your OP though... audio display = subwoofer, speaker, or tweater (if you'd actualy need that kinda power for a tweet. lol) mono = one audio display. 2ch = 2 audio display 4ch = 4 audio display 6ch = 6 audio display then after that you get into Component setups; that are comprised of sub/speker/tweet combo's. so... assuming we're wiring up subwoofers (bass) note1 MONO amp; you want one big woofer (15+ at 1200) 2ch @ 1000w (watts) = more than good for 2x12's. (the one you just traded in) so if you're looking for 1600w then i'd say you'd be good for two single coil 15's really. really it depends on your goals. but typicaly you want to give your audio display's just enough push to make them sound. anymore is just distortion and sounds like crap. any other questions? edit: note1 now i'm assuming that you're pushing some high end brand names on those assumptions too... see different brands makes and models can handle different amounts. Plus i'm giving close to or over maximum values. you never wanna max out what an audio display can handle. it's like baking a chicken; you wanna get it just right  yes. Properly tuning your audio system is just like baking a chicken. just without the baking... or the chicken...
