Real Noob Monoblock Questions

Can a monoblock run 2 subwoofers? And if so, will it split the wattage or give the full watts to each sub?

[Noel989]

Yes

And it splits the power between the subs

Example if you have an amp that does 1000 watts

You'll want to get 1 sub that's rated at ~1000 watts, or if getting 2 you'll look for ~500 watt sub

Yes it can run multiple subs. Yes it will split the wattage. You need to look into wiring diagrams to find ohm loads and also you need to know what ohm your amp is stable at.

[Kyblack76]

If the impedance is in the rating of the amp, it can run multiples yes.

Output is divided by the amount of drivers.

any suggestions to match up with two nvx vsws? rms is 500 watts each - haven't bought anything yet but - i am trying to stay under 1000 watts to avoid changing alternator - will probably still upgrade to big 3 though. this is an entry level system

[mcfalcon]

Lots. But lets talk about your price range first bud.

[kindofanoob]

not really on a budget - i mean i guess i am trying to keep whole system under 1500 ish but im willing to make some concessions for quality

[kindofanoob]

less than that would be great - would love to get my kid a nitro buggy for Christmas lol

what ohm are your subs? NVX has a JAD1200.1 for 259 on sonic electronix.com. But need to know the ohms of your subs to better help you.
