gattiboy13 Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I am no expert so please no bashing on me for this question. But can a set if 4ohm components be ran at or wired for 2ohm to get more out of amp? If so how and what are pros and cons? I have the alpine s series 6.5 components.

Skullz Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 You can only wire one set at the ohm load the were meant for, you can wire a pair of 4 ohm components in parallel down to 2 ohm or buy a set of components that are already 2 ohm. The JBL P660c's are 2 ohm allowing you to get more out of your amp but it also makes the amp work harder at the lower ohm load and can begin to overheat causing it to shut down. 01 Ford focus ZX3 Pioneer AVH-X491BHS PPI PC 4800.2 Morel Maximo 6.5" x2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 You can't wire a single 4 ohm speaker to 2 ohms any more than you can plead with a civic to be a corvette.

kl0wn Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 If you are asking if you can take (2) 4ohm SVC speakers and wire them in parallel on the same channel of the amp, to achieve a 2ohm load, then yes you can. 06 Mini Cooper S Sundown, SoundQubed Cadence, XS Power 151s Sealed 155s Outlaw Windshield @ 37hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gattiboy13 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Yes but 6.5 components, not subs. And how or where can i find out how to do this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
standardcabspl Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 wiring,and ohm load dosent change from subs to speakers. i assume they are single voice coil 4 ohm 6.5's then you would go positive to positive, and negative to negative, the 12volt.com can show you a picture diagram. i hope you amp is built right for it Good lord sweet baby Jesus.

If you have (2) sets of SVC 4ohm 6.5 components and want to run them together on the same channel to achieve a 2 ohm load, you would wire them up, + to +, - to -, just like this diagram. 06 Mini Cooper S Sundown, SoundQubed Cadence, XS Power 151s Sealed 155s Outlaw Windshield @ 37hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
