Usa Post Number: 213 Registered: Oct-06 | right now i have it wired to 4ohms on this piece of cr@p amp of mine. the amp is a Cyclone CA2098.. should i wire it to 2ohms and bridge it? im scared that i might be pushing it too hard if i bridge it cuz the amp says it does 2000 MAX so i figure that would be like 1200 rms? im prolly way wrong on that but if i kept the gain and bass boost down do u guys think it will be ok? right now i have the bass boost at +6dB and the gain all the way up. |

Matt, just take the two "+" wires and run them to the "+" on the amp, and do the same with the "-" wires! It'll give more power to the sub, even though you definitely need to get a better damn amp! lol And like everyone else says, keep the damn gains down dude!lol |

Gold Member Username: AdddisorderWest palm, Florida Post Number: 3043 Registered: Jan-06 | thats what im saying trell he said he had it wired to 4ohm and i know they are DCV subs so there is no way if it was wired at 4 he could drop it down at two ohms. so i guess he had it at 8 or something. but if he runs that amp at 2ohms bridged it sounds like it will blow. if i were him id get a new amp. |
