Bronze Member Username: KunitPost Number: 46 Registered: May-05 | What is the best way to wire 3 subs into a 2 channel amp? I have 2 on their own channel and the other bridged...is this correct? The other thing is...I have a 4 channel amp but it doesnt have a cross over. I suppose I could buy one but would it hurt one sub without a crossover? And could i just run the power wire into the 550 watt into the 200 watt? Or would that rob power? Do you really need a splitter? |

The thing is I have 1500 watts worth of subs and only 550 watts pushing them. I cant go over 1000 watt amp or it will cook my alternator wont it? I'll have to pick up a D-block if i plan on hooking up to amps. I'll probably run the 200 to some 6x9's. |
