Gold Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 1898 Registered: Dec-05 | you can bridge the amp and play it that way if your subs are dual 4 ohm, if they aren't then you're screwed, what's the brand of your subs/amp another thing, never look PMPOs or Peak power (the same) cuz they're not applied for car audio |
Silver Member Username: PanamanianPanama cityPanama Post Number: 204 Registered: Aug-05 | ok, brand of both is SONY. but forgetting about SONY (that sucks, that is cheap or anything else)... you said i can do it, but will it play louder or better? gracias |
Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 2720 Registered: Sep-05 | it all depends on subs voice coil config. |
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 959 Registered: Mar-04 | if they're svc 4's you can still bridge the amp - you just have to wire the subs in series for 8 ohms. That's a slightly better option than 4 ohms stereo. Power's the same, but any slight differences in the l/r channel are eliminated. |

Panama is one of the greatest place to get stolen merchandise cuz everything goes there... i'm not a thief! hehe lol! |

Silver Member Username: CaraudioToronto, Ontario Canada Post Number: 642 Registered: Sep-05 | Same could be asked for a 2 channel amp bridged for 1 DVC sub or use both channels if possible? |

There are some minor sq issues that can be eliminated running multiple subs mono instead of stereo. |
Platinum Member Username: GlasswolfWisteria, Lane USA Post Number: 11570 Registered: Dec-03 | there's no stereo separation below 200Hz anyway, so it really doesn't matter, but mono works jsut as well. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4007 Registered: Feb-05 | Ive got 2 new 12w3v3's on the way. They are the single 4 ohm versian. So 2 of SVC 4 ohm subs can be wired to 8 ohm and if bridged to a 2 channel amp like a ppi a600.2 will i get it 4 ohm bridged ? My other option was to wire it in parallel and get it down to 2 ohm and use my RF Power 1000 at 600 x 1 @ 2 ohm Is the ppi a600.2 a possiblity with 2 svc 4 ohm subs ? |
Gold Member Username: CarguyPost Number: 5628 Registered: Nov-04 | 2 SVC 4ohms will NOT give you 4ohms bridged. You can however, power each sub on separate channel for 4ohm load. If you need to wire SVC in parallel, then use the RF. |
Gold Member Username: Suleman36Maryland U.S.A. Post Number: 4008 Registered: Feb-05 | I whould need 300 rms for these subs so the RF is the only choice available for that. Ill get 600 x 1 @ 2 ohm and that is underated aswell. I plan to go sealed with it and possibly use my w6v2's prowedge box for these aswell with polyfill inside already. |

Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 2721 Registered: Sep-05 | use the pg or the Jl 500/1, more then enough power for them. |
