Bronze Member Username: Jleet68Post Number: 12 Registered: Feb-06 | Hey, Im new into car audio. I have a 1 0hm stable amp and was wondering what ohm subs to get. Since the amp has 2 sets of speaker outputs would i wire each sub to each output at 1 ohm? |

Bronze Member Username: Jleet68Post Number: 13 Registered: Feb-06 | The amp says that it puts out 2000 watts at 1 ohm, so is that for each speaker output or is that together, so 1,000 a piece? |

Bronze Member Username: Jleet68Post Number: 15 Registered: Feb-06 | That shows the subs wired to one output, right? so which output do i wire it to? |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 607 Registered: Feb-06 | just checked the link and for some reason it goes to 2 2ohm dvc, just scroll down to bottom where it says 2 subs, dual 4ohm. |
Bronze Member Username: Jleet68Post Number: 16 Registered: Feb-06 | ok, i got that. but if i wire them seperate so each sub goes to one of the outputs on the amp, then what do i need? http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_6523.html# |

Bronze Member Username: Jleet68Post Number: 17 Registered: Feb-06 | No, the amp i have is a mono amp, but has 2 speaker outputs, so could i wire one sub to each output. You know what i mean? |
Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 2087 Registered: Sep-05 | mono means just that 1. the 2 speaker outputs just makes it easier to wire and the amp will auto bridge the 2 outputs.... |
