kl0wn Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 So I think the reason your voltage drops is the extra draw you've created by bridging your amp plz someone correct me if I'm wrong. I don't think your amp will do one ohm bridged. If it will, then first thing I would do would be the big 3 to try and get rid on some of the voltage drop. The amp could be shutting down due to lack of enough power but my guess is that your amp wasn't meant to do one ohm bridged. Briding the same as strapping? If so...this is the one of the specs off of onlinecarstereo that cccmaa posted "Strapping Capability: Strap Two Amps Together for Twice the Power (2 Ohm Stable)" Quote 06 Mini Cooper S Sundown, SoundQubed Cadence, XS Power 151s Sealed 155s Outlaw Windshield @ 37hz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

99rangerkid Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 those are the specs for the amp Quote 99rangerkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99rangerkid Posted October 29, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 so how would i bridge it to have it at four ohms??? Quote 99rangerkid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
30Hz.wav Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 Briding the same as strapping? If so...this is the one of the specs off of onlinecarstereo that cccmaa posted"Strapping Capability: Strap Two Amps Together for Twice the Power (2 Ohm Stable)" The one I posted was an example of why these amps are not good at all. Not the exact amp ranger has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kl0wn Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 And no it's not the same as bridged, bridged is done on one amp. When you strap an amp you take two amps that are strappable and make one amp out of them creating more power and also creating a higher required ohm load. Amps that are strappable have a master and slave setting one them and depending which amp is sending or recieving the power from the other would determine which amp would be set to which setting. Yeah I know what strapping was, never read up on what bridging was, thought it was just a different word haha, but I looked up bridging a few minutes ago and figured out what it was, thanks for clearing it up though!

kanarrjl Posted October 29, 2009 Report Share Posted October 29, 2009 here is another version of the diagram that etaks crew posted and is how you need to wire your amp and subs up Quote 97 Honda Civic Sedan Rear disc brake conversion 2" drop 17's lots of exterior mods SYSTEM SoundStream VIR-5850 Dvd player RE 6x9's and 6.5's Soundstream DTR4.500 Soundstream DTR1.2200 8" RE-x in a t-line Kinetik 1800 Plans 4-SA-8's Another Kinetik High output alt My Cardomain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toady Posted November 9, 2009 Report Share Posted November 9, 2009 Ive Fixed Two Problems Like This, One Was A Low Impedance On The Subs And Amp, The Other Was A Power Issue What Size Wire, Are You Running And What Size Fuse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
