Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 868 Registered: Mar-04 | "I need a 2 channel." Why do you "need" a 2 ch? The best option IMO, and in many others' would be a class D mono amp that does around 1500w rms into 1 ohm. You'd wire your subs like this:  Amps I'd look into -- Lanzar Opti2000D HIfonics BXi1606D |

Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 872 Registered: Mar-04 | it's no easier than a mono, less efficient, and for that much power probably more expensive. but hey - who are we to make good recommendations??? |

Bronze Member Username: Ford150niteDelray Beach, Fl Westplam Post Number: 38 Registered: Jun-06 | A mono amp can hold that load ? how about the speakers there 4 ohms , can they come down to a 1 ohm load? |
|
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 873 Registered: Mar-04 | I would say the majority of class D mono amps are designed to perform best at 1 ohm - some at 2 ohms. CVX's are dual voice coil subs. If you have dual 4's - yes, a pair of them can be wired for 1 ohm. That's what the pic ^^ is illustrating. If you have dvc 2's wired for 4 ohms a piece then you want an amp that's around 1500w at 2 ohms or 1/2 ohm. |

Gold Member Username: Chaunb3400Huntsville, Alabama U.S. Post Number: 7648 Registered: Jul-05 | "don't class D amps sound bad in the highs?" Nope, not at all |
|
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 874 Registered: Mar-04 | 12's don't play hi's class d amps are used in world-class SQ set ups -- I really don't think sounding bad in the highs will be a problem for you. |
|
Silver Member Username: N2audioLawrence, Ks USA Post Number: 875 Registered: Mar-04 | chauncey, sure they do - the switching of the outputs becomes audible above a few hundred hz. It's beside the point though - if 12's are playing a few hundred hz or higher that's a problem. |

Bronze Member Username: Ford150niteDelray Beach, Fl Westplam Post Number: 42 Registered: Jun-06 | by sounding bad i mean like distortion . Is a class D amp like http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=17036 going to make the subs sound bad ? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Ford150niteDelray Beach, Fl Westplam Post Number: 43 Registered: Jun-06 | I still don't ubderstand how a one channel amp can power two subs? |
|
Bronze Member Username: Rick_rossPost Number: 50 Registered: May-06 | you hook two subs up to one channel idiot |

Silver Member Username: JohammbassCork, Cork Ireland Post Number: 238 Registered: May-06 | Optidriven, So which "world-class" SQ set ups are using D class amps? I am pretty sure that MOST "world-class" SQ set ups are using 2ch bridged for their subs  |
|
Bronze Member Username: Ford150niteDelray Beach, Fl Westplam Post Number: 50 Registered: Jun-06 | Want iam trying to say is that I want to hear the music when the vol is low with some bass.And then when my friends come over I can slam it. To hear the bass! |

Silver Member Username: JuliobSanto DomingoDominican Re... Post Number: 676 Registered: Dec-05 | robert i think you're pretty dumb! use one class D amp, they're for subs!!!!!! you can say they will sound bad if you're using one class D with some 6x9 speakers or tweeters, but not with subs!!!!!!!!!! |
|
Bronze Member Username: Rick_rossPost Number: 51 Registered: May-06 | put both - wires and both + wires from the subs into the one channel on the amp. how dumb can you get |
|

Silver Member Username: GangstafertPost Number: 120 Registered: May-06 | Robert just listen to these guys they know what they are talking about. The mono amp will be alot better for your subs wire them like that pic shows and you will be set, and they will slam for your ftriends.Its also more efficient. |

I am pretty sure that MOST "world-class" SQ set ups are using 2ch bridged for their subs." Sorry, haven't done any show-to-show surveys. We both know they're out there. I didn't say MOST use them, I didn't even say a lot. And some that DON'T use them will still tell you there's no audible difference in the sub frequencies. My only point was there is no significant drawback in SQ by using class D vs. a/b. Certainly not for Joe Blow trying to come up with a decent system for the DD. |
