IH8PunkRok Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 (edited) no? so there is not amp compatable .25 ohm no. most people on this forum have no concept of this idea the amount of amperage required to feed an amp at that ohm load would be massive and require many large batteries for capacity. then on top of that you would need alts that could charge fast enough to keep up with the draw. if your voltage so much as thinks about dropping the whole thing is fucked. stick to one ohm and i suggest you learn what series/parallel wiring is like he said^ Edited May 24, 2010 by IH8PunkRok Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big dee Posted May 24, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 someone correct me if im wrong. cant he do series/parallel and get 1 ohm? i have them run parallel now on audiobhan1200dmono ugraded to 2200 and it does fine and dont run hot not even warm should i keep it hooked up or what? i dont want to burn up the amp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IH8PunkRok Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 -wire the individual coils of one sub in series -do this for all 8 subs -now connect all subs in parallel gives you a one ohm load Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

7jezuz7 Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 what subs are these, the Hifonics Hifi 12" D4 right? 300 rms a piece and there's 8, so 2400 rms. maybe one of those rf 2500 will do or Hifonics HFi2500D Quote An Audio Technix 18" Strato on a Kicker KX120.2 My Youtube Bass Vids Updates When Possible...

I know it varies per frequency, but still impedance rise does not factor into a daily driver enough to worry about it Quote -Matt2005 Dodge Magnum RTJVC KD-AVX1 2 PPI S580.2 Obsidian Audio ST1 Horn Tweeters PRV 8MB450s Audio Legion 3500.1D 2 RE MT 18s 360 ah LiFePO4 BatterySHCA 2/0 155.2 @ 29 hzKicker CVR 15's buildDD 3512e buildMini T-Line Build(6) 8s BuildNightshade 15s Wall BuildMagnum AB XFL 12s BuildNewest Magnum Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, most amps are not as efficient as the load drops, but it is not enough difference to require another bank of batteries or additional alt. If it is, that would be an amp to stay away from.
