zayres29 Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 no, they can not all be tied in together let alone have some turn on and off. amps are not made exactly the same. every part has a tolerance, usually 5-10%. i would imagine there would be delays in the sine waves and the subs would be taking "steps". thats my theory at least. a secondary problem is that amps that are left off but still given input voltage tend to fail over time. this answers my question thanks looks like ill just have to use the volume knob like everyone else Quote Btw that was the first person.

skittlesRgood Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 yea. each amp is wired to each sub. one channel per sub 6 amps per sub, 6 amps all together. i havent ever seen a 6 channel amp tho. dude...

ChampN252 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 shop owner around here had a setup like that. He had switches, I believe, fiberglassed into the under the steering wheel on the open space.

crispy_chick3n Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 thats true, but i suppose if you were using the setup for competition only it could be ok. as for the different tolerences for different amps i believe fosgate has a solution for that. a little ol thing called bdsync Quote This page is crispy_chick3n approved. © crispy_chick3n inc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zayres29 Posted December 26, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) i think im going to be using all sundown amps either 6 1500s or 2 3500s everything is still in the air at this point Edited December 26, 2010 by zayres29 Quote Btw that was the first person.

I never got into details about how it worked. I mean he didn't do it with music playing. He had to shut it off and do it first. But I'm really not sure.

zachfowler222 Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) why not just get a rca bass knob? its a lot easier and instead of get a bunch of different amps why dont you just get 1 big amp or 2 big amps? more amps means more money.... the amps alone will cost more to buy 6 smaller amps then a couple big ones .... the wire is gonna cost more, your gonna need more power to run the amps.....imho its not worth it Edited December 26, 2010 by zachfowler222 Quote I SCAM PEOPLE OUT OF MONEY...

sqsux Posted December 26, 2010 Report Share Posted December 26, 2010 as for strapping 6 amps, every time you strap an amp it does it's rated power at higher impedance, if that makes sense. I'm sure if I explain this wrong someone will be able to correct me, but for example I know the aq 2200 does 2200@ 1ohm, when you strap two of those together it becomes 4400@ 2ohms, 3 would be xxxx power @ 4ohms, and so on. in my personal opinion it would be much more beneficial to use less more powerful amps with an rca level knob, when you turn that knob down you wont be drawing the same amount of power as if it was turned all the way up, if that's what you're getting at with all of this.
