OrionStang Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 One d1 sub and one d1.4 wired together. Would this be bad? Final load would be 1.2 right? But will it hurt anything? Probably only temporary until a recone is acquired, and its not my setup. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
S15_Silvia Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 I...think that would work, and yeah it makes sense that the final load would be 2.4 in parallel. My only question is since each sub has different resistance, would each get different wattage?

Guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 wouldnt the woofers still get different amounts of power (read: slightly) even if the resistance between the two are that minuscule? Quote
OrionStang Posted March 22, 2011 Author Report Posted March 22, 2011 Thats what I need to know Kranny. S15, the final load would be 1.2 with vc series, speakers parallel. But thats irrelevant. Maybe a recone is the safe bet. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
CJ18 Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 Final ohm load would be about 1.2 but the readings on the coils on each sub would be different. It will only be a small difference but would be enough for the subs to get different amounts of power. Quote
S15_Silvia Posted March 22, 2011 Report Posted March 22, 2011 Ah yeah, didn't fully think out my response before posting.

OrionStang Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Posted March 23, 2011 Its all good. We aren't gonna mix 'em. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread
RAM_Designs Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Subs will for sure be getting different power. Quote Ryan Miskin - owner of RAM Designs I have my PM's turned off, please email at <script data-cfhash='f9e31' type="text/javascript"> /* */</script> 2200+ designs since March 2011...
TeamHT Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 common chamber? they will for sure get different amounts of power but honestly, i think there are circumstances that will allow limited playing without blowing everything up. does the other driver actually read 1ohm? Quote Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you?
RAM_Designs Posted March 23, 2011 Report Posted March 23, 2011 Basically you're going to have one sub moving more than the other at any given time, so you're going to reach the limits of that sub before the other. Either get a pair of matching subs, or just live with the fact that you're not going to get the most out of the setup because one sub will not be able to reach it's potential output.
