jnasty Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 I'm in need of more power so I'd like to strap two identical amps which don't strap (in the normal way). Amps: 2 - Arc audio 2300SE Interconnects from the processor into each amp. Except one of the amps will be fed the same exact signal, but 180° out of phase. Use the positive terminals only on each amp Wire the in phase amp to the positive post on sub. Wire the out of phase amp to the negative post on sub. Gain match both. Mtx did this on their thunder elite amps, but they had a dedicated phase switch. Check out their instructions...

AaronT Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Scrapping is pointless when you can just gain match them.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AaronT Posted March 16, 2020 Report Share Posted March 16, 2020 Watch this video explains the pitfalls of strapping amplifiers even ones that can be strapped you still going to have phase issues that need to be ironed out even when strapping strappable amps What do you really gain from it I mean it ain't like you're gaining anything really your lowest impedance doubles Better off just game matching the amplifiers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
