Need help with Type R specs
|
Silver Member Username: ClouduzPost Number: 172 Registered: Jun-06 | ok, I just got a type R but will be getting another one soon. They are used so i don't have the sheet to tell me the dimensions for a box. So can anyone help me by giving me the info so i can put it into the box calculator to build me a box for 2 typer R subs. And did i wire them right? i have the dual 4 ohm version and want to run them at 2 ohm. The banna plugs are hooked up like this.....+ to + and - to - so i only ran 1 speaker wire to ONE set of voice coils. is that right? |

Post Number: 916 Registered: Dec-06 | u just have to make sure you use both voice coils. if you only use one on a dvc sub it messes it up. a lot of times they give u extra plugs on a voice coil so its easier to link subs and voice coils together. for example on the pic about the bottom 2 +'s are linked together and the bottom 2 -'s are linked together |
