Post Number: 313 Registered: Feb-06 | personally i would never buy power acousik, but everyone likes what they like. but if you have them you can wire them at 4ohm, but from what i hear power acousik amps are overrated so you'd be underpowering the subs. 4 gauge should work fine for the wiring. and a 3 farad capacitor is way to big for that, the most you'd need with that set up is 1.5, but i would recommend not hooking the cap. up. |
