  1. So I've got an American bass xr-12d2, dual 2 ohm voice coil 1200w RMS and currently an nvx nda105 monoblock amp (1ohm stable, 2000w RMS) but it's huge so I've been looking at other smaller options. I found the NVX xad21 which is a 2 channel amplifier, 1 ohm stable (1000w x2 RMS), bridgeable down to 4 or 2 ohms. RMS Power Ouput @ 14.4V, 4 Ohm (Bridged),≤1% THO+ N 900W RMS Power Ouput @ 14.4V, 2 Ohm (Bridged),≤1% THO+ N 1600W With the xr-12d2 being 1200w RMS, I was wondering if it would be possible to get the xad21 and bridge the sub down to 2 ohms for 1600w... Or if it would work, I could do the non bridged 1000w x2 with each voice coil on a separate channel but I've read that isn't as good. So I was hoping I could bridge this amp to the 2 ohm load for 1600w. I know that the dvc 2 ohm subs can be wired to 4 ohm load, or 1 ohm load. And I think that when you bridge the channels, it divides the ohm load in half? If that's correct, could I wire the xr-12d2 in series to a 4 ohm load, bridged across the two channels for a 2 ohm load at the amp? Or would it be better to just use the monoblock I have already? I like the idea of being able to use the 2 channel bridged for a sub, or for 2 stereo channels if I decide to put speakers on it. The xad21 is 1 ohm stable and bridgeable down to 2 ohms so this should be okay load wise, I'm just not sure how I would go about wiring the dvc 2 ohm to a bridged 2 ohm load. Hopefully my math is correct, and I can wire the coils in series for 4 ohm load and then bridge it to the amp across the two channels for a final 2 ohm load. Please correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks for the help.
  2. I thought it was odd someone that's been installing for 40 years would ask what tools they would need
  3. Well, the amplifier does 1000 @4 ohm, 1350@ 2 ohm, and 2000 @ 1 ohm RMS. The sub is 1200w RMS. That's why I wanted to wire it to 2 ohm. I know I could still wire it 1 ohm and leave the gain down but I was hoping wiring it at 2 ohm would still work without damaging the subwoofer. Would it really only do 600w with one voice coil? Would it cause any damage or would it just underperform?
  4. Wondering, like it shows in this image, but a lot of folks say it will damage the sub... Is it possible to wire a 2 ohm DVC sub to a 2 ohm load? Will it damage the sub if you only wire one of the voice coils to one channel of mono block amp? I have an American bass xr-12d2 and an nvx nda105 (1 ohm stable but also works at 4 and 2 ohms). I got the 2 ohm version of the sub thinking I'd be able to wire it to 4, 2, or 1 ohm load at my choosing. I know how to wire it to 4 ohms and to 1 ohm, and have considered wiring it to 2 ohms by using only one voice coil but like I said, I've seen forum posts where people say that only using one voice coil will a) half the power rating and b) cause thermal problems.
  5. I dont suppose anyone knows off hand what volume level the pioneer dmh-160bt or the kenwood kdc-x998 clip at?
