Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1339 Registered: Jan-06 | this is mainly for Canan.....I'm going to see about buying some subs from him...RE 8's. They're 175 watts rms each..now, I can get a kicker zx350.2 for about $200 shipped. 1>since it is 175rmsx2@2ohms shouldn't that work perfectly with those subs? 2>since the subs are dvc 4ohm...to hook each one up, I hook the + on one vc to the + on one channel, and the - on the vd to the - on the other channel, then do the same thing on the other sub on the second channel...correct? btw, heres a pic of the amp |

Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1345 Registered: Jan-06 | TOO much for the amp??? the amp says its 175watts rms x 2channels at 2ohms...and the subs are 175 watts rms each, so if I hookup 1 sub to each channel shouldnt that work?? If not...let me know a good amp then. |
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 562 Registered: Aug-06 | prob be a lil more then u think.. 350x2 is a lil to much try something more like 170-200 x 2 and ull be fine and if there dualvc hook them up 4 ohm loads svc hook them up 4 ohm loads EASy.... |
Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1348 Registered: Jan-06 | its not 350x2...its 175x2...heck just give me a better amp for the same money if u can |
Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1349 Registered: Jan-06 | or maybe a mono amp would work better, but I need to find one that i can hook up 2-dvc-4ohm subs correctly |

Silver Member Username: Waterboy2289Martinez, Georgia USA Post Number: 149 Registered: Jan-06 | yes you will be fine with that amp and those subs but if it were me i would go for a cheaper amp.....beacuse you can get 350w rms alot cheaper than that |
Silver Member Username: Bump05We Stay Fly, 18 SX USA Post Number: 570 Registered: Aug-06 | Ok i see...and yes the amp will be fine for those subs ^^ dunno what he was talking about... also if the subs are dual 2 ohm subs hook up like this http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wiring.html?subs =2&impedance=DVC2x2 or if there dual 4 which i dont think they are hook them up like thishttp://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wiring.html?subs =2&impedance=DVC4x2 and just bridge them to the kicker amp... which will be putting 35o maybe lil more to both subs and you will be set |
Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1355 Registered: Jan-06 | Canaan said they were DVC 4's...and thats what they say on the specs on RE |
Gold Member Username: Wolfman1966WEST MONROE , LOUISIANA USA Post Number: 1356 Registered: Jan-06 | ok so I would wire them up like this...right? and hook them up to the amp so that is MONO....correct?? the amp is 350wattsx1@4ohms..so if I hooked them up like shown above, that would be 175watts each...correct? |
Silver Member Username: Waterboy2289Martinez, Georgia USA Post Number: 151 Registered: Jan-06 | You CAN get 350w rms cheaper....if you are going to buy unautherized then atleast get the best deal possible |

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 2390 Registered: Jan-06 | or pgx400.1 you can pick them up for cheap. and it would work fine with the subs if not the kicker will work |
