Fredy09 Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Wire them to 1 ohm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BlueberrySPL Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Wire them to 1 ohm Cant I can only wire to either .5 ohms or 2 ohms beause they are 1 ohm woofers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeamHT Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Wire them to 1 ohm Cant I can only wire to either .5 ohms or 2 ohms beause they are 1 ohm woofers What are you talking about? You have two D1 subs right? Wire the coils in series and then parallel the speakers equal a 1 ohm load. Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?

TeamHT Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Not to mention how do you have two D1 subs wired to 2 ohms? Lol, basic wiring options should be 1 and 4 ohms..... Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Yep, that's right. If you have 2 d1 subs, you can either wire them in series, like he said, and you will be at 1 ohm, or wire them parallel and they will be at 2 ohm. The third option is to wire them down to a .25 ohm load, but that will mess up the amp, if it would even play at all. If you need help figuring it out, just use a wiring diagram for d2 ohm, and cut the #'s in half when your done. Is anyone confused yet? Lol!

TeamHT Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 Yeah, why suggest a D2 wiring diagram instead of a D1... Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 I couldn't find a d1 diagram, so I was just telling them another way to do it.

cc_audio Posted March 1, 2011 Report Share Posted March 1, 2011 (edited) Do this, and your amp will work perfectly. And that is a damn good amp, should treat you nicely. Once you learn how to wire of course Edited March 1, 2011 by cc_audio Quote It's all gone! The Celica Build Feedback If I buy something from you, DO NOT USE FEDEX!
