This question was raised vaguely before in another one of my threads, but I didn't get a definitive answer on how I should wire two 8" 4ohm DVC Diamond Audio subs (the older M series) to my Audiobahn A8002T amp.
I wired the subs in series creating an 8 ohm load each. My options are either 4 ohm mono or 8 ohm stereo. The amp is rated at (take this with a grain of salt) 800x1 @ 4ohm mono, though I'm not sure I believe it's that high.
On the other hand, doing the math with Audiobahn's specs (1/2 wattage for each 2x resistance) 8 ohm stereo should be 100w RMS per channel.
I currently have it wired @ 8 ohm stereo and to be honest I'm pleasantly surprised with the output of these two small subs. They each have 0.5cf per chamber sealed, in a truck box, behind the rear seat of a Nissan Frontier crew cab.
Do you think I would damage these subs by running them @ 4 ohm mono? Is it possible to turn the gain down to compensate for the increase in power?
