Gold Member Username: InvainMichigan United States Post Number: 2748 Registered: Aug-04 | I'm guessing they are both dual 4 ohms? If so - you need to wire each sub in parallel, and then wire the subs together in parallel. Just look at this picture: http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/#2dvcpp |

|
N E K Unregistered guest | Also what about this Class D mono Orion 1200D? Is that a real good amp to push 2 12" Kicker L7? This amp is 1 ohm stable as well as the kicker kx1200D and the JL audio e1800D i am wondering about. |

Bronze Member Username: Junior11124NyUs Post Number: 23 Registered: May-05 | but the orion is a good amp too . u should be fine with that. |
|
N E K Unregistered guest | OK jus trying to get everything together so i would need about a 1 farad -1.5 CAP right? Also would you suggest a 4 gauge wiring system and what gauge wire would you use for the subs? I APPRECIATE ALL THE RESPONSE YOU HAVE GIVEN ME!!! THANKS AGAIN! |

Bronze Member Username: Junior11124NyUs Post Number: 25 Registered: May-05 | u could go with a 1 fara but i think 1.5 is better for ur sistem , go with the 4 gauge cause it probaby is the recomended for that amp . |
|
N E K Unregistered guest | ok so what gauge wire you recommend for the subs? 8 or 12? I promise this is the last question. |
|
Bronze Member Username: Junior11124NyUs Post Number: 26 Registered: May-05 | u should be ok with either one . but in my personal op. 12 |
