The amp is Max Power (1 Ohms) : 2250W X 1 Max Power (2 Ohms) : 1750W X 1 RMS Power (2 Ohms) : 1200W X 1 RMS Power (4 Ohms) : 800W X 1 So, Would it be better if I did parallel to parallel because it says dual 4 ohm subs to 1 ohm and the amp is 1 ohm? I might not be reading this right. On that website DVC drivers with Voice Coils in Parallel / Parallel Dual-6 Ohm Subwoofers: 1.5 Ohms Dual-4 Ohm Subwoofers: 1 Ohm Dual-2 Ohm Subwoofers: 0.5 Ohm Dual-1.5 Ohm Subwoofer: 0.38 Ohms http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/wiringwizard.asp?WoofQty=2+woofers&WoofImp =Dual+Voice+Coil+-+4+ohms+x+2&image.x=17&image.y=3 http://mobile.jlaudio.com/support_pages.php?page_id=161 |

Silver Member Username: CadillacdbHouston , TX Post Number: 262 Registered: Aug-05 | dual 4 ohm is when a sub has two 4 ohm voice coils but urs have two 2 ohm voice coils so that makes them dual 2 ohm subs, when it says 1 or 4 ohms it means you can wire them individually to 1 ohm or 4 ohm operation or you can wire them together for 2 ohm or 0.5 ohm or 8 ohm operation |

Gold Member Username: RovinTrinidad & T... Post Number: 3303 Registered: Jul-05 | yes it would if its not rated 4 it very few amps go down to 1/2 ohm & the very few that do r expensive ......... |

Bronze Member Username: BradrgilmanGAlVeStoN, Tx Usa Post Number: 24 Registered: Nov-05 | I would of been better off getting dual 4 ohm because two of those subs could be wired to a 1 ohm? I would of had better results with the aw1206ts because they have dual 4 ohm and two of those could go down to a 1 ohm load but the aw1208ts are dual 2ohm and they can only go down to 2 ohms or .5ohms? Thanks |

Bronze Member Username: BradrgilmanGALvEStoN , Tx Usa Post Number: 25 Registered: Nov-05 | What does this mean? Dual 3" ASV 4 Layer vouce coil. Does the size matter and what is the ASV and 4 Layer mean? Also do you know what this means? THD @ 1 Watt, (4 Ohms) 0.30% Signal-To-Noise Ratio Below Rated Power Output 100Db Frequency Response 20Hz To 250Hz (+/-3db) Input Sensitivity 300Mv To 5.1V Does anyome know how the subs create the bass, if a 15" push's more air then why are some 15" subs louder then others if the others have thicker foam and move more? I was told that it is the amount of air moved and a ported moves air in two places. Also if the magnet has a lot too do with, can you add more magnets for increased power? |

I was told that it is the amount of air moved and a ported box moves air in two places. Also if the magnet has a lot too do with, can you add more magnets for increased power? Why does the size of wire matter to an amp if the Sub is only connected to the 12 gauge - 16 gauge wire? Then if the Amp has 8 guage speaker wire terminals, then why does it matter if NO sub has bigger then 12Gauge wires after the subwoofer terminal? So if anyone can answer any of these, teach everyone who see's this! I really want to know all of these answers? |
