Diamond500 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 I have a quick question hopefully someone can help me out. I have 2 15s at 750RMS running at 2 ohms right now, would it be a bad idea to run my subs at 1ohm even though they say to run them either at 4 or 2ohms. Btw the brand is Diamond Audio and both Dual Voice coil. Sorry for the noob question. Thanks Quote

bassfiend316 Posted July 19, 2011 Report Posted July 19, 2011 (edited) If you have two D4s, you're not running them at 2 ohms now. It's either 4 or 1. Unless you're running two amps. All parallel=1 ohm, series/parallel=4 ohms. Look at the12volt.com like already suggested Edit-well, I thought it was already suggested lol. Maybe that was a different thread. Anyways, the12volt.com has wiring diagrams. Edited July 19, 2011 by bassfiend316 Quote

Diamond500 Posted July 19, 2011 Author Report Posted July 19, 2011 What amp are you running to the subs? Just ordered a Soundstream TX1.1300D so they will be powered by that. Quote

Just to be sure, Watch your voltage to make sure it doesnt drop low, and set your gain's right so you don't clip and blow your subs. Here's how you would wire it. http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=2&I=42#results Quote *06 330i - Sundern x12 - saz-3500* *91 Foxbody V1 S-Trim Notch*
