CNF Kevosinn Posted January 10, 2013 Report Posted January 10, 2013 I've never strapped 2 amps together and I just ordered my second amp. I'm going to be running 2 of the crecendo 3500's. I need help understanding how to connect them together. Also does doing this change how I should wire my subs to the master amp? I have 2 AQ HDC4 woofers with a dual 1 ohm VC's. thanks in advance *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

RickyFriery97 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Posted January 10, 2013 with dual ones, you would need to wire up to 4 ohm and wire like this that will put each amp at a final load of 2 ohm...if you strap at 1 ohm each amp will see .5 ohm and I don't recommend that, hope this helps 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer
fox_racin4 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Posted January 10, 2013 run them at .5 ea UNSTRAPPED and gain match yes its more work, but better in the long run. strapped amps are more sensitive IMO 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole
CNF Kevosinn Posted January 10, 2013 Author Report Posted January 10, 2013 @ fox racing I see what you are saying and that makes sense. I can gain match them with my cc-1 correct? *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

RickyFriery97 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 yes you can gain match with a CC-1 2014 Chevy Silverado Crewcab 1994 Chevy Full Size blazer
CNF Kevosinn Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Posted January 11, 2013 Ya that's what I thought *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

CNF Kevosinn Posted January 11, 2013 Author Report Posted January 11, 2013 Also I use the PAC lc1 RCA controller for my bass knob. How can I use it to control both my amps? I would think a splitter would work but I don't want to cut down on the signal *** SuperSeller Status Verified *** ( http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/25829-super-sellers-buyers/ ) "kevosinn's" astro van 8 custom Sundown Zv4 18's 4 Sundown scv 6000's CNF Distribution CNC parts Skyhigh wire some batteries SMD Meters and tools used on the installhttp://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/172877-kevosinns-vanwest-coast-skyhigh-car-audio-vehicle/ 16,000 watt walled silverado build.http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/161965-walled-silverado-4-hdc4-15s-4-crescendo-3500s-and-much-more/ 8,000 watt 1999 Subaru legacy outback.

fox_racin4 Posted January 11, 2013 Report Posted January 11, 2013 If your amps have "output" rcas Use that to conect them Either that or a pair of Y splitters. You would put the pac inline with the RCA ten split the rcas at the amps 1998 gmc extd cab 12 crossfire C710s 4 SAZ-4500s 3 Singer 400A altsbuncha mids/highs Team Asshole
