How To.... Us Amps Md3d

Recommended Posts

I'm a bit confuse how to Wiring two US Amps MD-3D Using the MLT Wiring as shown in the Owner manual( pics,link below)The problem is that the owners manual says the lowest Impedance is 4ohm, so that means each MD3D should see min. 2ohm, now since I have 4x RE SX 12" Dual 4, 2 subs on each Amp at 1ohm, it confuse me, because if so than the min ohm should be 2 ohm for the MLT Wiring, but they recommend 4ohm min.

And if i wired the subs in series so the final ohm is 4ohms then the subs won't get the full power they should get.

So can I wiring them at 2 ohms final ( 1ohm each amp) and still using the MLT Master/Slave Wiring, or should a set each Amp apart, or there's other way?

Anyways thanks,

If each amp is 1 ohm stable I don't see why it would hurt it to run them at 2 ohms strapped. Like you said the amps would each see a 1 ohm load when they are strapped at 2 ohms. If you feel comfortable trying it, it's your decision. I might call US amps if I were you and ask them why exactly they have their manual worded that way. Otherwise you could run 2 subs per amp and then match the gains by measuring the outputs of the amps.
