CodyBurton Posted June 8, 2011 Report Posted June 8, 2011 Ok so I'm doing my first major build! I need to know how to wire the subs. Would it be best to wire all 8 or run 2 amps and run 4 to each? I haven't really been able to find a diagram for 8 svc 4 ohm subs thanks! Quote

I haven't really been able to find a diagram for 8 svc 4 ohm subs thanks! Run pairs in series, then parallel those sets, & parallel the remaining sets, 2 ohm load if I'm right. I'll make a diagram.

CodyBurton Posted June 8, 2011 Author Report Posted June 8, 2011 Ok thank you that doesn't sound too difficult to follow thanks for the quick response Quote

CodyBurton Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Posted June 9, 2011 Kicker comp 15's they're not the greatest subs, but they're well priced and I think they'll be pretty good considering I just turned 18 Quote
__d_a_v_i_d__ Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 8 15s should get loud ! Run in one amp ? Or ? Quote Chevy Impala Shocker Sigs / TC Sounds 12s Sundown NS-1 | SAX 100.4 Sundown Neos | Dayton Audio Neos ETCCC ETCCC ETCCC My YouTube ---- Subcribe!!
CodyBurton Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Posted June 9, 2011 Haven't decided on either 1 amp running all 8 or 2 amps running 4 each it just depends on what I can afford I'm looking around now Quote
__d_a_v_i_d__ Posted June 9, 2011 Report Posted June 9, 2011 run 2 amps, 4 subs at each... parallel to 1 ohm each. Option 1 (parallel) = 1 ohm load Quote Chevy Impala Shocker Sigs / TC Sounds 12s Sundown NS-1 | SAX 100.4 Sundown Neos | Dayton Audio Neos ETCCC ETCCC ETCCC My YouTube ---- Subcribe!!
CodyBurton Posted June 9, 2011 Author Report Posted June 9, 2011 Ok well I think I want to go with 1 amp just to keep things simple so I'm going to wire them series/parallel Quote
CodyBurton Posted June 10, 2011 Author Report Posted June 10, 2011 Ok well Ive decided on a 2 amp configuration, thanks for all your help I'm going to order everything this week and I'll be posting build pics as I get everything done I'm super excited for this one!!!!! Quote
