Wiring To 1-ohm


Recommended Posts

I have a Level 4 D2 sub. Want to run it at 1-ohm. Amp only does 500 at 2-ohms. I currently have each voice coil wired with speaker wire and both speaker wire pairs into the amp. Is that 1-ohm or do I have to run a wire from the positive on one to the positive on the other and then one positive to the amp and same for negative?

The System In Progress

Headunit: Pioneer DEH5800MP

Sub: DC Sound Lab Level 4 15" D2

Box: 4 cubes at 33Hz

Sub Amp: Cadence Z1200

Front Stage: PG RSD5cs

Rear Stage: Pioneer TSA6991R (Temporary)

Front and Rear Amp: Cadence TXA3004 (FS) (Looking)

Wiring: XScorpion, American Bass, Stinger Custom Pro 4 Gauge

no, same thing

if ur going to do the second pic, take the negative from the other coil to amp, not the same side

personally i like pic 1, more wire for more current, just keep all the lengths the same

and id rather have 4 single 12 runs, then just 2.. po
