Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 586 Registered: Sep-04 | If the above doesn't help you, you will need to tell what is the voice coil configuration on the subs, and what are the amp specs! |
|
Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 18 Registered: Sep-05 | where to look on the speaker to find out the spacs and voice coil(im new =) |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 393 Registered: Jul-05 | There must @ least be a sticker/label on the back of that sub that has something written on it . |
|
Silver Member Username: JaackdethUnited States Post Number: 587 Registered: Sep-04 | Rick, do you know the model or anything about the subs? Have to know the coil configuration in order to match anything up! |

Silver Member Username: PikeshPost Number: 184 Registered: Jun-05 | RICK!!!! FORGET ABOUT LOUD SOUND and Take off you amp fomr the back of the box.... you are gooing to lose your amp if it stays on the box... my buddy lost like 3 of his amps cuz of that reason... |
|
Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 21 Registered: Sep-05 | wait how did u kno my amp was on the back of my box lol and why will i loose it wat u mean? explain |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 426 Registered: Jul-05 | Yeah - is P psychic ? , i can't figure how he can guess that . Vibrations from the box will cause components inside the amp to come loose . Will answer your original ? in a minute ..... |

Post Number: 427 Registered: Jul-05 | Is it these u have ? - this 2 sites have better specs listed than woofersetc http://www.google.tt/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A//www.rhinotronics.com/inde x.cfm/act/Catalog.cfm/catalogid/866/description/Volfenhag/browse/null/MenuGroup/ Home/desc/Car%2520Audio%2520Woofer%2520Volfenhag%2520%2520ZX4715DVX%252015%2522% 25201200watt%2520Subwoofer.htm&ei=iQ8jQ7zeD7bu4QHezv2RAw http://www.google.tt/url?sa=t&ct=res&cd=1&url=http%3A//www.ampdepot.com/car/sgl- prod/amps/volfenhag/zx7180.htm&ei=sQ8jQ_uZJ8jG4QHz24H9Ag |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 428 Registered: Jul-05 | If thats what u got then your subs says 600wrms & the best that amp can do since it appears it can' be bridged = 2 X 350 Watts RMS @ 2 Ohms So your amp does not have enough power to match & the best way each sub can be wired into each channel would be like this  |
|
Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 23 Registered: Sep-05 | my amp is 2000 watts peak not 1600 and i think its 400 rms |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 430 Registered: Jul-05 | Wooferetc did not have the specs clearly listed so i google the models & i saw it on 2 other sites saying it is 1600 - but either 1600/2000 the answer to your original question the best way each sub can be wired into each channel would be like in the diagram ..... |
|
Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 24 Registered: Sep-05 | the only problem is lol one speaker only has 1 negative n 1 postive... total for 2 in the box is 4... so idk how that wiring works. |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 435 Registered: Jul-05 | U got me really confused now cause u posted its DVC & your link shows it to be DVC & now your saying something else . Era your subs not mounted yet or Are your subs in a box already & u are only seeing 2 wires coming out from each side ??????? |
|
Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 27 Registered: Sep-05 | exactly, they are in a box, and 1 + - on each side |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 447 Registered: Jul-05 | Well pop open the box & rewire em |
|
Silver Member Username: Basshead86Ocala, FL USA Post Number: 994 Registered: Aug-05 | "Yeah - is P psychic ? , i can't figure how he can guess that ." in rick's diagram, it says "amp on back of box" lol |
|
Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 451 Registered: Jul-05 | Oho , ok ! - its written so small that i had to zoom in to actually see that ... BTW- Muddy , about the smileys actually i 1st got the idea when i saw u had 1 so i went searching for my own , just type it on google & steal off from whereever - lol   |

Bronze Member Username: QuigPittsburgh, Pa Us Post Number: 29 Registered: Sep-05 | how do i go about popping box open n rewiring them... and isnt there another way to wire these for 2 ohm leaving them in the box |

Silver Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 455 Registered: Jul-05 | Well ya ain't gonna go about popping it with ya granddad's Winchester - ha ha !. Nope ,can't do it from outside - Simply unscrew ya subs & rewire em . |
