Should i use both positve and both negative , or just from one side. whats will be the difference if i connect to all of the + - connections on the sub. here is the picture of what i am talking about. |

Silver Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 928 Registered: Jul-05 | also 1700 rms per sub will blow your subs in like 5 min |
Bronze Member Username: Sinx85Post Number: 93 Registered: Sep-05 | they are 2 ohms. and 1700 rms will go to both subs. cuz 2500d only gives 1700rms at 2 ohm |
Silver Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 932 Registered: Jul-05 | 1700/2=850 per sub, u can wire them to make a 1 ohm load |
Bronze Member Username: Sinx85Post Number: 94 Registered: Sep-05 | i just tried to run them , by putting the neg and pos on one side of the sub and it didnt work. No sound came, just little tick tick happend and thats it |
Bronze Member Username: Sinx85Post Number: 95 Registered: Sep-05 | bro i tried but the subs didnt work. i only put + and - to one side of the sub and subs didnt make a sound. how can i wire them to 1 ohm? this amp puts 2500 rms at 1 ohm so i guess that will be my best choice. But plz tell me how to do this. also is this noraml that the subs are not working when i only wire them to 1 of the + - connectors? thankx |

Bronze Member Username: Sinx85Post Number: 98 Registered: Sep-05 | hey bro i just tried one sub first, just to test it, but sub still does not work. All it does is a tick tick tick noice when i hook all the + - terminals. this is how i wired it exactly as it is in this picture below |
Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 2015 Registered: Jul-05 | could it be a short somewhere ? or Is your gain turned all the way down ? |
Silver Member Username: Sinx85Post Number: 102 Registered: Sep-05 | hey bro, this is whats happening now. First the amp was working fine. i was running it with my other 2 subs but now the amp wont turn on and it keeps bruning the fuse that i have hooked up to my power wire. All the wiring and everything is the same. i just replace one fuse and then again turned the amp on and right away the new fuse blew. Can this be cuz i dont have good ground or how else to find out whats going on. Is this like a short somewhere? but how do i find out. oh and for a second the suv lights go dull a bit and then they are ok. This happens when i guess the fuse gets burned. i hope i dont mess up my amp or subs |

Post Number: 2022 Registered: Jul-05 | i'm wondering if a single strand of + wire from either your power or speaker wires are grounding off a neg wire ? .......that happened in my bro's car 2 times & he had 2 go get it repaired . remove all wiring going into your amp & reinstall & see what happens ....... |
