ROBERT 04XBLZ Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 i was wondering if i was to wire my subs ++-- (d2) that should make it 1ohm correct? the t40001bd are putting the max out at 1ohm. but now if i was to wire two subs ++-- ++-- but not in series but seperately to the amp would that still be at 1ohm at the make? hope this makes sense Quote My New Build checklist: (3) 18'' btl fully loaded d2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROBERT 04XBLZ Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 they are dual 2 ohms so i wouldnt be able to have the amp see 1 ohm then? Quote My New Build checklist: (3) 18'' btl fully loaded d2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dmanson Posted February 13, 2008 Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 oh sorry fi btl 18 fully loaded d2 yeh you'll only be able to do a 2 ohm load and the amp. unless you get two smaller 1 ohm stable amps and run master/slave Quote 2-DC 15XLM2 D.7s 1-DC 5K amp (1) XS Power D6500(UNDERHOOD) and (1) XS3000(REAR) 3 runs 1/0ga for power and 2 runs of 1/0ga for negative.

ROBERT 04XBLZ Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 (edited) hmm so if i was to put one sub in my car with one t4k at 1ohm in about 9cubes it should be louder than the two at at higher ohm with less power in the same cubic feet right?

ROBERT 04XBLZ Posted February 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2008 so i should just leave the two 18's in and get that t4k and wire it at 2ohm and get the 3kw+ to the both and wait till i get the other t4k and change it to one ohm Quote My New Build checklist: (3) 18'' btl fully loaded d2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
