Tuesday, November 30, 2004 - 02:52 GMT I've got a JBL BP600.1 amp, and am going to buy two Alpine Type-R 10" subs. What would be better, the 4ohm or 2ohm subs?

Tuesday, November 30, 2004 - 03:08 GMT If you don't mind me answering this question I will. Output 4 Ohms: 300W x 1 Output 2 Ohms: 600W x 1 Signal-to-Noise Ratio: >100 Frequency Response (±3dB): 20Hz - 500Hz Total Harmonic Distortion: 0.1% Input Sensitivity: 250mV - 4V here are the specs of your amp. I would buy 2 4ohm subs and run them parallel to get a 2 ohm load on the amp and get the most power out of the amp.

Tuesday, November 30, 2004 - 06:52 GMT If you get the dual 4 ohm version you can only run at either 1 or 4 ohms. I see no point in that. care to explain yourself?

Tuesday, November 30, 2004 - 10:07 GMT Im sorry I did not reallize that they were dual voice coils My Bad. What I meant to say is that if they were SVC to purchase 2 subs at 4 ohms and Parallel them to make a 2 ohm load on the amp Bridged to be exact.

Tuesday, November 30, 2004 - 15:35 GMT I'd get 1ohm stable amp instead. You'll get many more choices with it.
