matt402 Posted November 16, 2011 Report Share Posted November 16, 2011 ^yep. small box = less rise. big box = more efficiency. a single amp is more efficient than 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnowDrifter Posted January 5, 2012 Report Share Posted January 5, 2012 What dc hoe said. 1 big amp, or 2 little amps (strapped or ran independently). Either way the same woofers in the same box, in the same vehicle will have the same impedance rise, even if you wire it to .25ohms, your actually rise will be the same, but just different numbers. So if you wire 2 dual 1ohm woofers and wire them to 1 ohm, and rise to 4 ohm or if you take your 2 dual 1 ohm woofers and wire them to .25 ohms and rise to 3.25 ohms. Your actual impedance rise is still going to be 3 ohms. kinda late, and tired so hopefully I worded this to make sense. lmao Not to thread jack but... I always thought rise was a ratio. Like wired to 2 ohms might yield a rise to 6 ohms at X frequency, but the same thing wired to 1 ohm would rise to 3 ohms at the same frequency ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
