C.Sanchez.A Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Hey, I'm going to be getting two 12'' DC XLs. I'm going to power them with a AQ2200D each. My question is is it better to strap the amps together or run each sub off it's own amp?

Supercharged DCs Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Strap them. Bassless once again. Can't seem to keep a system for more than a few weeks Saving for a '06 Nissan 350z, look for build around June 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayres29 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 if you strap them you only have to set the gains on one amp all of the settings on the first amp will be sent to the second and the second amps settings will be bypassed Btw that was the first person.

speedball1978 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 i thought strapping amps gives subs more box rise?? if i recall there was thread about keeping amp seperate or strapping them, not really sure. I'm suprised you didn't go with the aq3500 for the subs... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrclutchy420 Posted May 8, 2011 Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 strap because higher power at higher ohm 4400 @ 2ohm x1 or 2200 @ 1 ohm x2 less strain on your eletrical Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
