Bronze Member Username: Stoner2oo4Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-04 | Im thinkn about 2 kicker comp VR 12s they are 4ohm subs and i want to run them off a JBL 600.2 and run 300watts@2ohm to each sub...is this possible even though they are 4 ohm subs and how will it affect them? |
Anonymous | the load that you are puting on the amplifier will eqill 2 ohms from your 2-4ohm subs, and if i am correct, jbl can handle 1 ohm loads, so you should have no problem, just be sure to bridge the speakers to the amp |

Bronze Member Username: Stoner2oo4Post Number: 17 Registered: Jun-04 | well what does it mean by 360watts@4ohmsX1 BRIDGED |
Gold Member Username: GlasswolfNorthWest, Michigan USA Post Number: 4635 Registered: Dec-03 | if the CVR subs you have are the dual 2 ohm coil models, you'll have two 4 ohm subs (coils in series) the two bridged 180.2 amps would be fine for those. one amp per sub. |
