Dafaseles Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Now, all of you can laugh at me.... I don't know why I talk myself out of obvious answers, I think too much and start doubting myself.... I have 4 dual 1 ohm subs and 2 Sundown Salt 4 amplifiers, so 2 subs per amp. To get a 1 ohm load per amplifier, I would wire them up like they are in the picture correct? 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out!

liteblue Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Series voice coil, parallel at amplifier. 1 + 1 = 2 ohm/2 subs in parallel = 1 ohm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JakeW Posted March 3, 2021 Report Share Posted March 3, 2021 Can you just use 1 channel or must you use 2? ‘16 ram. Net Audio. Taramps. JL. DS18. Fox Acoustics. XS Power. 226.08” of DC Audio blue carbon fiber. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negative from one voice coil to positive of other coil into amp, and a jumper between the other 2 negative/ positive terminals will give me 2 ohms, do that again with the other sub and I've got 1 ohm....I knew that was the right answer, but left alone with my thoughts and no one to ask, I talk myself out if being right 🤣 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here.

liteblue Posted March 4, 2021 Report Share Posted March 4, 2021 SALT-4 is a mono block amp. If the amplifier was two channels then each channel would only see 2 ohms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even though it had 2 sets of speaker inputs, the amp will still see 1 ohm total. It's not a 2 channel 2011 Chevy Silverado under construction My build log here. Check it out!
