Update: Just returned from getting my amp installed,well $450 bucks later,& of course the guy who put it in went home,i turn the volume all the way up,& it sounds like it did before when you turn it 1/4 of the way up.Im so pissed right now,im freakin blowin my exhaust money,& the **** aint even right.Does anyone have any idea what this high priced retard might have done.Here is a clue i think.When turned all the way down you can still hear music comming from the sub.WTF.

check the gain,
check the bass boost.
You might want to go on to the Audiobahn website and download the owners manual.

Bridging the amp will combine both the left and right channels together (mono), which will at least double the power.
Also it depends on how they wired your sub, it could be wired in any configuration from 1-8 ohms, I'm not too sure what your amp is optimised for, but its probably either 2 or 4 ohms mono.
I would download the manual and bring it to the shop and ask them if they wired it correctly.
Also, they should readjust the amp!
