SLM89 Unregistered guest | The Infinity 310A is a 1 channel amp that says 2 ohm output power - full range is 312 Watts and briged power @ 2 ohms - full range is 294 Watts My two Infinity 1230's are 4 ohms and in parallel together they are 2 ohms. How much power will my subs be getting? |
|
Anonymous | according to your stats your subs will get 294 watts but that sounds like its the max not rms |
|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | thats the only numbers i see, i dont know if its rms or not. |
|
SLM Unregistered guest | wait... RMS Power at 2 Ohms 312 W x 1 will my subs get all the power wired in parallel or will it be half? |
|
Anonymous | yeah you will 312 W x1 bridged when your subs are wired in parallel if you wired them in series it cuts in half so wire them in like you said in parallel |
|
Anonymous | that amp is rated at 116w x 1@4ohms and 312w x 1@2ohm but what is the rms for each of those 1230 subs cuz it sounds like you are underpowering 2 subs unless you mean you had just 1 sub although the rms on those is 300 so you will need to set your gain according to what the voltage is out of your HU to your amplifier |

|
SLM89 Unregistered guest | even if i wire them in parallel? Wiring them in parallel gives each sub the max power, am i wrong about this? it shouldn't cut it in half |

SLM89 Unregistered guest | no? yes? in science a few years back, i remember my hairy science teacher Mr. Gorkoff tell us parallel is way better because both things get all the power instead of half. |

LOOSEWHEEL Unregistered guest | What RDS said. Max O/P is 312W into 2 ohms. The amp will see 2ohms when they are paralleled, therefore each speaker gets 1/2 or 156W. 156w + 156W =312W. |
