i got one T2 which is 4ohm and if i wire it as load comes out as 1ohm on amps do i look at the 1ohm power or 4ohm power?
last is it better to have alot more power then perfect amount? EX)sub-1000rms 2000peak amp-1200 rms 3000peak or is better to have exact power sub does for the amp? plz help
is your amp rated to be 1 ohm stable? otherwise you'll need to use the coils in series for a 4 ohm load. I'm assuming you have a sub with dual 2 ohm coils.. your message was hard to read.
you'll be fine using a 1Kw sub on a 1200w amp. that margin is fine.
acually idk what stable it is heres the specs Number of Channels 1 - Mono RMS Power (4 ohms) 550 watts x 1 chan. RMS Power (2 ohms) 1100 watts x 1 chan. RMS Power (1 ohm) 1600 watts x 1 chan. Bridged RMS Power Not Bridgeable Peak Power Output 3200 watts approx. and so ur saying its ok to run higher power cuz im goign run one T2 40hm or 2ohm havent chose yet 15inch sub on it?
pretty much what im trying to say is it better to ahve a lot of access power on the amp for the sub and if so if i can change it from 4ohm to 1ohm to get more power if u can understand?
wire the coils in parallel, but be very careful. you're going 60% over the rated power capability of the subs. I'd keep the gain set near minimum and be very gentle with the volume, keeping any bass boost settings at zero or in the negatives to prevent damage to the subs. you can use bigger amps than rated on a sub, but you need to be careful doing it..
mk thx for all the help but other wise woudl this amp specs be better Number of Channels 1 - Mono RMS Power (4 ohms) 500 watts x 1 RMS Power (2 ohms) 1000 watts x 1 RMS Power (1 ohm) 1500 watts x 1 Bridged RMS Power Not Bridgeable Peak Power Output 3000 watts approx. Min. Impedance Unbridged 1 ohms that way i dont blow my sub
still 50% over the rated power handling for the speaker.
try the Brutus 1500D by Hifonics its about $200 or so online, and rated for 1500x1 @ 1 ohm, but the truth is, it puts out about 1000 watts at 1 ohm.. its overrated, so it fits your needs just right
mk thx again but am i goign to be able to wire the t2 as a 1ohm load i havent ordered it yet but i can get either a 4 or 2 ohm wat ever can make me make feel liek a 1ohm load?
lol it is 1 T2 15" 2ohm 1000rms and 2000peak and its dvc but i want make sure im going the right way should i get that or shoudl i get 2 T1 10" 2ohm dvc cuz people keep telling me diff things?
well if I wanted to build a SQ system instead of something to impress others, I would use the tens. if I wanted something that'd rattle my teeth I'd get the fifteen. personally I like using a pair of 12" subs in my cars.. great compromise between a ten and a fifteen
yea but t any r expensive for 12 for 2 but if i got 2 t1 2ohm 10" can i hook both up to that one amp we talked about the Hifonics BX1500D Brutus Class-D Series and still have both on it as a 1ohm load?
right you are. good catch. the tens will still hit pretty hard.. you'll just get a much deeper feel with the fifteen especially if you port the box for that fifteen very low, like about 25-28Hz
I 2nd that. Spend the extra $$$ and get the 12s. I would also go with the two 12s over the 15.
The music you listen to can also influence your decision for which subs. To me 12s have always seemed to give the best mix of punch and boom. If all you listen to is Rock and Metal, then you may want the 10s.
this is what I have: 1 Class-D 1-channel 1-ohm stable Pyle 2400 watt max, 1200 watt RMS AMP and 2 1000 watt max 4-ohm stable pyrimid subs single coil. how do i wire it up to get the best sound?
To get the most output from your amp, you need to wire the subs in parallel for a 2 ohm load. You really need DVC 4 ohm subs, so you can run the amp at 1 ohm.
