Swaggasaur Posted June 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 im doing 4 15's and theyre d1's so .5 ohm is really my only option besides going 2 ohms. im wanting to do .5 ohm on each amp for 1 ohm nominal. i think i worded wrong on my original post Quote BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomaguy1 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 Strapping? It will cut the final load in 1/2 for each amp With 4 d1's you can do 2 subs on each amp at 1ohm then gain match 1 Quote Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matt14 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 If you "strapped" at .5ohm, that would mean that you are at .25ohms per amp. If you want a final load of 1ohm, then each would be at .5. Why dont you run 2 subs per amp at 1ohm?

OrionStang Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 You'll be fine. I m running 8k+ on a 270XP, an XSD1200, and two XS3100's, with drop barely hitting 13v. Ken are you running your amps at .25 ohms? .35 if you want to start that argument. Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OrionStang Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 6 3100's is a lot, but knowing exactly how you'll be wiring would help tons to get you a real answer. 1 Quote SMD Super Seller My Feedback Thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaggasaur Posted June 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 6 3100's is a lot, but knowing exactly how you'll be wiring would help tons to get you a real answer. the best way to do it is to run 2 subs per amp at 1 ohm, like tacomaguy suggested, would this still mean theyd be "strapped" or would i need separate RCA's to ea amp? ive never ran 2 amps before so this is new to me Quote BHE Wall Build TEAM DC Audio TEAM XS POWER1986 Monte Carlo KMC Nova's 20"4 DC XL's W/ PSI Recones2 DC 5k'sPioneer PRS 8010 Audio Technix 6 XS Power D3100's 1 XS Power D3400 Mechman 220a Alternator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomaguy1 Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 They wouldn't be strapped, you'd have to match the gains somehow. Can run one set or rca's to one amp than run an rca from the.output on that one to the 2nd amp Quote Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yates Posted June 2, 2013 Report Share Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) holly shit. if you strap 2 amps at .5 ohm you will toast everything. strap at 2 ohms to get 1 ohm of each I had a thread like this awhile ago asking what I would need for 10k my question now is what I'll need for 2 5k's strapped at .5 ohm for a final load of 1ohm.Will 6 d3100s and a d3400 up front be sufficient with a 220a alt? seems like everyone is failing to see how low is he trying to strap You'll be fine. I m running 8k+ on a 270XP, an XSD1200, and two XS3100's, with drop barely hitting 13v. Ken are you running your amps at .25 ohms? I agree Edited June 2, 2013 by Yates Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
