AstoSoup Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 What model and RMS amp do you have? What kind of subs and how many RMS are they? You have two choices, a .5 ohm load or a 2ohm load. Most amps cannot handle .5ohm daily, so I'm thinking your best bet is a 2ohm load. In this case, check the 2ohm RMS rating on your amp, divide it by 4 and that's what each sub will get. If it's much lower than what the subs are rated for, you will need a bigger amp or another amp. Here are the two possible wiring configurations.... http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=4&I=42#results Head Unit - Clarion VX709 7" DVD Touchscreen Mid/Highs - Front Doors - RF Prime 6.5" component mids.

AstoSoup Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Ignore the 3rd, 8ohm option as it isn't needed in your application. Unless of course the amp is a DC 10k and the subs are Power Acoustiks, lol Head Unit - Clarion VX709 7" DVD Touchscreen Mid/Highs - Front Doors - RF Prime 6.5" component mids. A.

reedal Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 To actually answer your question, The ++-- on the amp is essentially a parallel connection. So two subs going to one +- and two going to the other is essentially all four subs going into one. Yes, you can have them all in one box and same airspace if it's on one amp SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alaskanzx5 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 You can have them all in one box and airspace even if its 2 different amps. You just have to gain match from there. Op, if you wire 2 subs to 1 ohm and anther 2 to 1 ohm then coonect the to Te same mono amp your dropping to .5ohms. 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.

alaskanzx5 Posted October 21, 2014 Report Share Posted October 21, 2014 Yes but he was ask g if he wired 2 pairs of subs down to one then connects both to the amp if it will work. That would give him a .5ohm load. Maybe the amp can or can't handle that. Best way to find out is try. However I isn't recommended. At that point your throwing the dampening factor out the window. Drawing a lot more power to get a lower sq and small gain. Needs greater electrical and its higher risk. 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.
