XSVTOYZ Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 500 watts x 2 is about 100 amps max in a pulse type draw so should be just fine and an amp for the highs around 30 watt draw again not constant my old taco does this on a cheap battery wire it up and tell us when your thumpin!!

KICKER75 Posted January 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 So now I’m confused, I thought if the sub was 2ohms that was the load it put on the amp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to properly use the funcionality of this subwoofer with two voice coils, you wire the voice coils so they both receive power from the amp, which in your case, is going to be one of two ways.

KICKER75 Posted January 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 Ok thanks for clearing that up,I now realize I’m only pushing 300 watts to each sub with the mrv m-500 which sucks because I bought 2 of them.any suggestions on a correct amp? They are wired to 4 ohm load like the diagram reedal posted,and they are 450 rms Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted January 29, 2019 Report Share Posted January 29, 2019 If you have two 2ohm dvc subs, then your wiring options for a single amp are you could always buy a second matching amp, gain match the amps, and wire one sub to each amp.
