goldeneye4564 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 Current setup is two sundown 2ks on two fi btl 18s. I have one amp running per sub (not strapped) at 1 ohm. Both amps gain matched with DD-1. Would I see much difference strapping the amps at 2 ohms to run both subs? I know theoretically this sounds the same because it does... But I am just really curious lol. Do you guys mostly strap your amps? Or run one amp per sub? Opinions welcome please. Thanks. I RREEALLY ANGRY WIT U PHOTOBUCKET. HAD TO USE DROPBOX NOW HOLYYYYYY.

tacomaguy1 Posted July 1, 2013 Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 The rise would be split between them so might see a little more power, but I don't think there would be much of a difference. Only way to know is to test. Some people don't like their amps strapped and some do Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck thanks for the information guys, I know I can make the change if I want.. BUT an old saying, "if it aint broke dont fix it", sets in with me sometimes. I will just keep the setup the way it is now. If I do end up strapping them though I will let ya know how it works out. Thanks again. I RREEALLY ANGRY WIT U PHOTOBUCKET.

I haven't made any videos myself of the system. I was at a small local show this past Saturday and people were recording it and stuff like that. The wall still isn't fully sealed off from the rear yet. I have mad rear passenger door and trunk flex (SUPPOSE TO HAVE NONE WITH WALL F**K! LOL). But I am working on it.

goldeneye4564 Posted July 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2013 You can gain matchw ith dd-1? thought it wa sonly cc-1 function? WELL I guess I shouldn't say they are gain matched. They are both adjusted to a clean distortion-free signal. Just hooked dd-1 into amp 1 output and adjusted gain till I saw distortion and backed it off did the same for amp 2 is that wrong? should I have strapped them? I RREEALLY ANGRY WIT U PHOTOBUCKET.

Just because the signal is clean, they could be putting out different amount of power. If it's 2 subs in the same box with an amp on each one they need to be getting equal power Team Flex Issues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
