Jfisher Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Dumb question here. I understand that two 4 ohm svc subs in parallel makes two ohms and if powered by a 1200 watt rms mono channel they would each see 600 rms. What I DONT know is if those 4 ohm subs were each DVC instead of svc and wired correctly to present that same 2 ohm load........then what? If each sub needs 600 rms per the manufacturer does that mean that each voice coil received only 300 watts rms? I know Im rambling but in order to drive them to their max rms would the 1200 watts do it or would I actually need 2400? Thanks in advance.

MrSkippyJ Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 each coil would get 300, all you would need would be the 1200 watts. and just to be clear, they would have to be d2 coils to get the 2ohm final.

reedal Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 What skippy said. 300 per coil. Your only options with two dual 4ohm subs are 1ohm, 4ohm, and 16ohm. You need D2 to get a final load of 2ohm.

Jfisher Posted May 6, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 Here is the amp I have. It doesnt say it will support a 1 ohm load. Will it not? https://wetsounds.com/pages/products/SD2_spec.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadeTreeMechanic Posted May 6, 2017 Report Share Posted May 6, 2017 That is a stereo amp and there is no spec for 1 ohm, so most likely it will not. You could try it and if it doesn't go into protect then it will probably work all the way up to the point where it doesn't. Seriously though, what subs do you have? I would run it in 2ohm stereo with one sub on each channel for now. I don't know if these amps do rated power some companies don't. I assume you picked it because it is waterproof, there is not much to choose from. Save up some money to get a mono block amp so you can run 1 ohm and then put this one on your front speakers. Edit: I just looked through their whole website.

Jfisher Posted May 8, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2017 Yes the Wetsounds amps are pretty badass. I got it all figured out. I need a 4 ohm load with the amp bridged to see the 1250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
