New member Username: BishtikalPost Number: 7 Registered: May-04 | I got an audiobahn alum15q 1100 watt rms sub recently. but i have not got my amp yet because i dont wanna get the wrong one. OK, the speaker has dual 6 ohm vioce coils that operate on 3 or 12 ohms. Im kinda new to all this car audio but that means the lowest load my speaker can take is 3 ohms right? So i was eyeballing the jbl bp1200.1 amp to power it. the amp is 1200 wats @ 2 ohms and 600 watts @ 4 ohms so I would have to wire the speaker in parallel to get 3 ohms and it would be pushing about 900 watts to my speaker correct? Well maybe if there is a better amp i could use or a better way to wire my speaker someone could let me know? any help would be appreciated... thanks |

Anonymous | the same way as option #1 on this link. http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wi ring.html?subs=1&impedance=DVC4x2 thats for DVC 4 ohms but still wires up the same way for a parallel hook up. |
