Bronze Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 16 Registered: Nov-04 | Anyone got a diagram for this wiring? I just wired by dual 4ohm DVC's into a 1ohm load. How do the terminals on a mono amp look? 1 pos and 1 neg? So then would you just stick both 2 wires into each terminal? |

Silver Member Username: Joe718Brooklyn, NY Post Number: 265 Registered: May-04 | yes put all your positives in the positive terminal and do the same with the negative. Follow Glasses advice, my advice would have left you at a 4 ohm load, but heres a diagram to help yah out http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wi ring.html?subs=2&impedance=DVC4x2 |

frank4 Unregistered guest | cheers thats sound, I got 2 4 OHm DVC subs do i wire these in parallel or series? |
|
frank33 Unregistered guest | sorry i just looked at the diagram dont worry thanks for your help! |

Bronze Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 23 Registered: Nov-04 | Thanks for the advice on the 1 channel amp Joseph, even though I'm not going to wire it like that, I was looking at the first option #3 on your link and it has 1 sub directly connected to the other - how do you do that physically? |

Silver Member Username: Joe718Brooklyn, NY Post Number: 268 Registered: May-04 | What kind of subs and amp do you have? that option if oyu have 2 4ohm dvc sub would leave you at an 8 ohm load. That would make any amp sound really weak. If you dont want to go down to a 1 ohm load try going to a 4, just about every amp can handle a 4 ohm load. just a series/parallel config heres another link http://www.crutchfieldadvisor.com/ISEO-rgbtcspd/learningcenter/car/subwoofers_wi ring.html?subs=2&impedance=DVC4x2 |

Bronze Member Username: OlegSanta Monica, CA USA Post Number: 30 Registered: Nov-04 | I have 2 4ohm DVC audiobahn AW1006T's and audiobahn A2300HCT 1ohm stable amp. I got it down to 1ohm. Was just wonder how to do that option #3 physically? how do you connect 1 sub to the other? or did i misunderstand? |
|
Silver Member Username: Joe718Brooklyn, NY Post Number: 274 Registered: May-04 | You would connect from one coil to then next one on the other sub. I know it looks kinda tricky but the way i learned I would make a diagram in this case you would just print it up and and just do one wire at a time lol. You will get it. |
