I will be strapping my two NINe.1 amps together to ger 2400w x 1 at 1ohm. I currently have dual 4 ohm subs. I was told these will not wire to an overall 1 ohm load after strapping the amps together. What should I get inorder to allow each of the two subs to get 1200w a piece. Dual 1 or dual 2?

Dual 2's. Why strap the amps, and not just run each sub on its own amp? JW.

^^^^^ wrong


two dual 4 ohm subs can be wired to 1 ohm total. Wire all coils in parallel, that is all + together and all - together.

Elemental designs told me it was impossible for my two dual 4 ohm subs to get 1200w apiece after strapping the amps together. Are they wrong? I cant remember if they said it could be done with dual 1 or 2 ohm subs.
