strap or not

gain match unless you need to strap to get a certain ohm load

Used to have a loud truck

Right. I'm curious too. Strapped at a higher impedance...isn't that better for subs?

Not sure what strapping plays on imp rise though.

Also, what impact would there be if one amp blows while strapped?

I run my amps unstrapped...

If you end up running them unstrapped make sure you get some Y splitters for your rcas that run to the back. DO NOT use amp #1 rca out to connect amp #2.

Oh i know how a 12v system works I did take 3 years of electronics in High school hands on and some in college and also worked on cars in college an always got A's to B's in each class. 

But oh well enough dealing with ppl who have probably not even lived as long as ive been into electronics!

They are dual 1.4 subs. Reason I thought about running each gain matched is to run em each at .7

if yall have instagram you can see what one does at .7 on 1 2500. In a ram designs box. Sounds pretty good an ive had it about a month in there. My name is stevied225 for instagram

Starting box for the 2 today so ill just make a build thread

I have 2 y splitters coming off my pac pc1 knob

Efficiency is one reason.

Two is splitting impedence rise.

Three.is amps do strange shit strapped alot of times

Four. In almost every case where you can achieve the same load strapped vs un strapped the unstrapped has been louder on a meter.

Its not even close to the same thing. Its.also not a higher load. They both still would see the same load in the end. The only thibg is irs easier to set up. But if you tske athe extra ten minutes its worth it to me to run them unstrapped. The only advantage of strapping is ifyou need to get to lower impedence for competition in my opinion
