Unregistered guest | I am wanting to run 6 8" subs off one amp. How should i go about doing this? I was wondering if i could run a 2-channel amp with 3 subs to each channel Can anyone help?? Well the reason I am using 6 8s is i am putting them under a friends rear seat in his extended cab truck ... the box is a lot smaller than the one i would have to use for 12s. His main conscern is space ... he wants to take up as little as possible with still getting a lot of punch. The speakers are Rockford Fosgate Punch stage 1 4-ohm , 50-150 RMS, SVC, Peak 300w WE don't have an amp yet .... |

murph525 Unregistered guest | i probably will ... i just found this site last night .... it is pretty helpful ... to be able to talk to other guys who know a lot more than i do ... I have always done this as a hobby and have built some pretty sweet boxes for a few friends ... but am not the expert when it comes to all the ohms, etc... |

murph525 Unregistered guest | Another question ... what instead if i ran all 6 speakers off a mono amp or if i bridged a 2 channel ... would that change the ohms?? |
