Silver Member Username: Naledge503Working on a secret pr..., Oregon USA Post Number: 517 Registered: Jun-06 | Thats weird. on the kenwood website it lists that it is 1 ohm stable yet does not give any 1 ohm ratings. it states 900rms at 2 ohms. your 1800 watt rating is the max rating. never go by max ratings. only by rms rating. |

Gold Member Username: TjmutlowPost Number: 3178 Registered: Sep-05 | you can not wire 2 subs(dual4) together to et a 2 ohm load |

Bronze Member Username: Motomattic3Post Number: 89 Registered: Oct-06 | You might also want to try another amp beside the kenwood because its really 900watts at 1ohm you never go by the max they just simply use that as a selling pitch. assuming you have the TS-W2504SPL which is 800watts rms and 2500watts max that would mean you are pulling 1600watts off a kenwood none the less. you need a bigger amp. cause at the moment your not even getting those subs past the rms. and if you do a little adding with both of them your pulling a max of 5000watts which is probly why your blowing fuses I would seggest getting a Kicker ZX2500.1 ,MTX Audio TA81001,Hifonics XX-Hercules,MTX Audio TA92001,MA Audio HK4000D,Hifonics XX-Goliath,Orion HCCA-D5000,Rockford Fosgate Power T20001BD,Power Acoustik A3000DB, JBL A3000GTi, and so on and so forth. you might just want to make another link about what would power it. but at the moment your getting 450watts per woofer at 1ohm. which means you need 43% more power to get the rms and 82% more power to get the max. that poor kenwood amp. |

Gold Member Username: Van_manBoston South, MA Post Number: 1205 Registered: Mar-06 | that amp does ~ 1000 at 1 ohm. Get another amp, or just use 1 sub on it. At 2 ohms ~ 900, so right now each sub will see about 450wrms. |
