Skax Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 ok so i wanted to know all of my available options for wiring 2 dc level 4 12's dual 2 ohm i have them like this right now but the way my box was built it has a hole in the back big enough for 2 runs of speaker wire so i was going to wire each sub to a seperate channel of my 2500bdcp and i would highly appreciate it you could tell my my available options for wiring each sub and a diagram 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRON Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 RF 2500bdcp only has one channel, so you can only get .5, 2, or 8 ohm loads out of two, dual 2 ohm voice coils. Most mono amplifiers have two positive and two negative speaker outputs, but they are internally on the same channel. EDIT: Don't do .5ohm...

TRON Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Right, the final impedance should be 2 ohms. That's series, parallel. You could try 8 ohms, but I have no idea what the power will be, its hard to tell without a way of measuring it. Maybe half of what it can do at 4 ohms. It would be fine to run at 2 ohms, just watch your voltage. If it's dropping too much, set the amplifier gain lower.

That's the safest way of doing it.
