Not sure I understand your question. If you are going to create a CRC network, you will need ONE resistor per phase, not two, but a total of two resistors per monoblock amplifier. If the factory is using a 1.0 ohm value, as per someone else's post, then I suppose that's OK. Speltz's earlier proposal was to use no more than an 0.5 ohm resistor. I finally used 0.2 ohms and 0.1 ohms, respectively in a CRCRC network. I would not recommend going any higher than 1.0 ohm. Use a "smaller" cap in the first position, e.g., 1000 or 2000uF, then R, then C = 5600uF. Part of the improvement you will hear is due to simply increasing the total capacitance.
