Wicks Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 Okay had a "light bulb" moment thanks guys on facebook. I am a man so I can admit when I am wrong, had error in my math and testing, My thinking was correct as Tony mentioned he agreed with, just incorrect math and testing on my part. So my new arguement is how else would you wire 3 subs to 2 amps? Facepalm moment fawk!!!! That's exactly one of the benefits of strapping. Just another wiring configuration for various loads. Or gaining a certain power level with two amps. Some people can't afford a monster amp so they get a smaller version first. Then when they afford another, they strap the two and its like you have that BIG amp you wanted in the first place.

They do nothing, but help for wire config.. same as the strap option... gain,... no.. in fact, more of a pain in the ass....

bassfreake Posted August 2, 2013 Report Share Posted August 2, 2013 I was told at some point that gain matching has been found to give a little bit extra umf than strapping... other than that... Thanks I was pretty excited about the alt myself. kind of like a school girl, in a dress, on a swing. lol It's warming up enough that the donut-punching cyclist douchenozzles are getting their two wheeled fagmobiles out.
