Purpleheart91 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I have a question about running different loads on a 2 ch. amp. I tried asking the tech support of the amp manufacturer but got nowhere. I have a small Lanzar VBP251 amp and it is 2 Ohm stable in stereo mode. Is it ok to run a 2 Ohm load on one channel and a 4 Ohm load on the other? Thanks for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hazestorm23 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Is there a reason why you need to run different loads on each channel? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ham4864 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 don't do it. why would you do that. 2009 bmw 5 series Head Unit Stock Amplifier-JL Audio JX 360/4 Processor- Audiocontrol LC6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcbrassard Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Why would you want too? What configuration could you possible need the two differents ohm loads on a two ch. amp. You probly can do it...should you? NO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanzx5 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 You can from, my understanding. What are you trying to do though? Might be pointless. I know i'm running a 4ch (t400.4) with the front channels at 8 ohms and the rear at 4 ohms. Runs just fine. t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.

bcbrassard Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I know, but its a 2 ch he's talking about. Why would you? What set up would you ever need that for? LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purpleheart91 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 The reason for the different loads is I built an enclosure for my 96 Ford Explorer to put the 8" sub I have in the same place the stock sub was at, behind the passenger side rear panel. It is a single coil 4 Ohm sub. I have a 12" sub that I want to put in the other side in the rear. It is a DVC 4 Ohm sub. So either I wire the 12" DVC sub for 2 Ohm or 8 Ohm while the 8" sub can only run at 4 Ohm being a SVC sub. The only other alternative is to wire the 12" DVC sub for 4 Ohms using only one of it's voice coils. That is why I am considering running a 2 ch. amp at different loads.

alaskanzx5 Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 I can't think of a reason. It most likely would be pointless to do for a 2ch t1500bdcp 2 t2d4 15" 1 t600.4 1 t400.2 1 set p1 tweets singer alt, tons of wiring, smd vm-1, 80prs, back seat delete, still in the works, aiming for a 145-147 with the ability to play 25hz up to 50hz.
