SubThumpin Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 Whats goin on guys? So I just got my 2 new Fi Q 15s in the other day and i'm looking to upgrade my amp. Right now I just have a Boss Audio 2400watt. I want to get a 4000 watt amp but I'm not sure how to go about it. The 2 15s are 1 ohm I believe. If you look at the website for the subs I didnt add any additional parts besides the cooling option. What amp would be a good one to run for these 2? Also, how would I go about wiring it seeing they are 1 ohm??? Any help is appreciated THANKS

SubThumpin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Posted August 30, 2012 On the Fi Audio website the only options were 1 ohm and 2 ohms. I left it to be 1 ohm
TylerParrish Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 On the Fi Audio website the only options were 1 ohm and 2 ohms. I left it to be 1 ohm good, that means you can wire it to 1 ohm if they're both Dual 1's I say Sundown, DC, AQ, Crescendo, any decent amp mentioned around here What the f**k is an appropriate signature supposed to look like?2013 Kia Forte Koup Pioneer AVH-X4600BT iDMax 12 DD M1c @ 2 ohms Rockford Prime 200.2 Pioneer 6.75" Comp Set XS S3400, D2700 Project DB Battery Terminals Axxess ASWC Stinger HPM Everywhereeee 90 Sq.

SubThumpin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Posted August 30, 2012 Also will mono blocks be fine for the 2 15's or would it be better to get a 2 channel?
Guest Posted August 30, 2012 Report Posted August 30, 2012 monoblock. 99% of the time you will run a monoblock
SubThumpin Posted August 30, 2012 Author Report Posted August 30, 2012 Oh really? I've had plenty of smaller systems like dual 12's and dual 10's and ive always had 2 channels.... But I was just asking about what amp cause I've never had anything bigger than the 12's so I wanna give them the most power possible without harming the subs nor amp. One more question, If the subs are already 1ohm, and i do actually use a monoblock amp... How will I go about wiring the 2 subs together to keep 1 ohm? Just wire them in series? I'm appreciating all the help guys!

I'm appreciating all the help guys! 2 channels will work, but a monoblock is what most people run on their subs. And just because you can hook up 4 wires to a monoblock does not make it a 2 channel What the f**k is an appropriate signature supposed to look like?2013 Kia Forte Koup Pioneer AVH-X4600BT iDMax 12 DD M1c @ 2 ohms Rockford Prime 200.2 Pioneer 6.75" Comp Set XS S3400, D2700 Project DB Battery Terminals Axxess ASWC Stinger HPM Everywhereeee 90 Sq.

How would I wire the 2 subs together to keep them at 1 ohm? just (+) to (+) and (-) to (-)?
