Silver Member Username: PalanzaPost Number: 113 Registered: Dec-05 | Ok, I have a 2 channel amp. Anyway to figure out how to configure it without the manual? I.e. so that im running it @ 4 ohm's. It has options for 2 channels @ 2ohms and 2 channels @ 4 ohms. Anyway to do this? Kinda tricky. I know theres gotta be a way to measure resistance. |

Silver Member Username: PalanzaPost Number: 114 Registered: Dec-05 | yeah, i'd like to know how to use a multi-meter to test it. I tried just slapping it on resistance test and putting it on the + and - but that def didnt wokr. Same with watts, whats the conversions and what not ot determine wattage through a DMM |

Gold Member Username: Young_jamesCanada Post Number: 1090 Registered: Sep-05 | as everyone else is saying, what kind of subs and amp do you have? |
Silver Member Username: PalanzaPost Number: 117 Registered: Dec-05 | Infinity Perfect 12's and an Infinity Ref 611a Yeah.. I put the ohm meter on the amp outputs, now that i think about it, guess that wouldnt show resistance very well huh :P |
Silver Member Username: Killerzracing71Fredericksburg, Virginia United states Post Number: 431 Registered: Aug-05 | yeah so i ur question answerd James......not trying to b stupid but do u get it |
Silver Member Username: PalanzaPost Number: 123 Registered: Dec-05 | Yeah hah. I'm still kinda unsure about how to determine wattage though - I'm sure i'll be able to find an equation for it when I have some more free time tho. |
