techforce Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 Your setup is simple, get a 1 ohm stable amp, run + to + and - to -, leave phase at 0 on head unit, set lowpass to about 80 or a lil less, the subsonic, I would do by ear, since u don't know ur box tuning... listen for the low bass and if if the sub moves and u dont hear anything out of it, that is below box tuning, so go up a tad on the subsonic... i would set that all the way down and go up a little at a time so you dont miss out on those sweet low notes! As for the gain, the easiest way is to do it by ear, set your head unit to about 3/4 volume, that will now be your max volume, then adjust the amp gain until the bass starts to sound muddy or distorted then back it down a bit... This would be the easiest way for someone learning... then expirement with other ways once you get comfortable... That is the simplest way I know to explain it...

Alex K Posted November 16, 2010 Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 yes that is correct Yikes. That may have contributed to it blowing. So you had the other coils not plugged into anything? It was just straight + on amp to sub + and amp - to sub -? 2006 Nissan Z Track. My Feedback Thread i used to think a band pass was something you were around your neck or something.

You were just trying to get the output like the bb in the hose, when you really hada a golfball in there. 2006 Nissan Z Track.

KevinAmirkhanian Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 About this http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=1&I=22 so the second one (in series) is what I had running right? and parallel would be unbridged right? bridged makes more power? how would i go about making it go from 0 ohms to 1 ohm?

KevinAmirkhanian Posted November 16, 2010 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2010 lol my bad i meant from 4 ohms to 1 ohm cause isnt 1 ohm more power? I just have to make sure my amp is 1 ohm stable? and is more ohms safer but less loud for my sub and less ohms louder but more pressure on teh sub right?
