iCool247 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 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?

Jessica Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 (edited) 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 edit dammit Ch0sen, you ninja Edited July 9, 2012 by strangeduck Quote Rest in peace, walled 87 accord build log 03' Corolla build with AA Mayhem inside.

Crandis16 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 parallel 1/(total resistance) = 1/(1st coil resistance)+1/(2nd coil resistance) Quote My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 why did you buy a 2 channel for subs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crandis16 Posted July 9, 2012 Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 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) Quote My Red zx2 Build Log My Black zx2 Build Log My Red zx2 UBL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iCool247 Posted July 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2012 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?
