NOOB: Sub to Amp Wiring

[iCool247]

I have two 2ohm dvc subs. I bought a 2channel amp for them. If I'm correct, when wiring in series you divide the ohm by 2 and when wiring in parallel you multiply the ohm by 2? Correct? I just want to keep the 2ohm load, so how should I wire them?

with 2 dual 2 ohm woofers you can either do each woofer 1 or 4 ohm or both at 2 ohm

what amp did you buy?

ahh ninjad again

its an awesome tool

In series add the ohms, in parallel divide the ohms so, you can go parallel and be 2/2=1 then series and be 2ohms

dammit Ch0sen, you ninja

parallel

1/(total resistance) = 1/(1st coil resistance)+1/(2nd coil resistance)

why did you buy a 2 channel for subs?

[Crandis16]

if you want total of 2ohm load then you can also wire each sub in parallel (1ohm per sub) then both subs in series (1ohm + 1ohm)

I'm going with an Audiopipe AP-1800.1D Nevermind its not 2channels. So when I get the wires to the amp, I bridge them?

yes, I too have an audiopipe too hooked up to two subs and I have mine bridged at 1ohm
