Facekicker Posted September 30, 2013 Report Posted September 30, 2013 Wire each of your subs coils positive to positive leading to positive on an amp, negative to negative on the coils, leading to negative on the same amp. One amp per sub. 2002 Monte Carlo Started a build log Fi, DC, Mechman, XS Power

rockFord_Expedition Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 If you have dual 4 ohm coils each amp will see 2 ohms and their rated output at that ohm load is 650W. Your subs can definitely handle more, but if you wired them down to one ohm and just used one amp, they would each get around 500w rms. The difference between 500 and 650w would be minimal, and you might not even be able to tell the difference. I would run one amp per sub at 2 ohms each. One sub per amp: This is how you would wire it if you ran both subs off of one amp: Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire
LUMISg Posted October 1, 2013 Author Report Posted October 1, 2013 Im planing on 1 amp per sub so would i just use one side of my amp for a 2 ohm or can i brigde it???

You cant bridge that amp, it's got a mono output. That set up is just for wiring flexibility. Wire 1 coil to the A side and 1 to the B side Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire
