New member Username: Ukw21Post Number: 1 Registered: Mar-07 | I'm probably getting two subwoofer. I need to get an amp for that sub. Help me out cause I have no clue what I'm trying to look for. Sub Spec -400Watt RMS each sub -single voice coil -4ohms I don't wanna get 400W X 2 amp cause those are so expensive. Is there any other way to wire my 2 sub and get at least 300W power with cheaper sub? |

Silver Member Username: Freezeman_7Lindsay, Oklahoma U.S.A Post Number: 845 Registered: May-06 | yeah def. bigger power cables. 4 gauge this time. most of the time wen u bridge a 2 channel amp, its 4 ohms.. u have single voice coil. wire it in a parallel. that will put it out to 2ohms. find a 1200wrms@2 ohms. thats what ur shooting for right there. nothing else. |

New member Username: Ukw21Post Number: 5 Registered: Mar-07 | I found this 1 x 800w 2ohm for my 2 400W sub. Sub is 4 ohm single coil. If i parallel wire 2 of my sub, I will get 2ohm connection, correct?? If i do this, is this stable? |
