i know its been asked alot about running car subs in your house... but i have a 8" sub in the basement i think its around 200 watts rms probably at 8 ohms.. if i hooked up a w3v2 to this amp would it be fine? does the power differ from home amplifier and car amplifier?

whats the impedence of your w3v2? You should check the impedence the amp is seeing now and test it out with the w3v2 and see how it goes.

If you got the dual 4 ohm version, you could wire the voice coils in series to run at 8 ohms.

switch the mulitmeter to the ohms setting and mesure the impedence off the sub woofer

k built a box yesterday and hooked it all up was working good.. got some friggin port noise though il have to flange them and hopefully that will fix it.. i was playing it pretty loud and then in stopped.. pulled the home amplifier out and i the fuse blew on it.. this would have nothing to do with the sub would it? i mean both subs will give it an 8 ohm load.. i figure the settings were just to jacked up and i played it to loud?
