Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 576 Registered: Feb-06 | jordan, that amp will work with that sub, just wire it to a 2ohm load, but you will be underpowering that sub by about 100w. |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 313 Registered: Mar-06 | What are the voice coils duel 2 or 4 ohm? |
New member Username: Splinter00Post Number: 4 Registered: May-06 | yeah, thats what i thought, but it will have to do for now, what would i need for an amp kit? and what size gauge of wire? |
New member Username: Splinter00Post Number: 5 Registered: May-06 | 4 ohm on the sub |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 314 Registered: Mar-06 | 2 4ohm coils or 2 2ohm coils? |

New member Username: Splinter00Post Number: 7 Registered: May-06 | ok thanks, also what do you think about setting all the gains on the amp? should i get someone to do it, or i was reading that if you set them all around 3/4 full it will be ok? |
Silver Member Username: Van_manBoston, MA Post Number: 323 Registered: Mar-06 | turn gains all the way down,Turn your Hu volume to the max position you would normal blair it at. slowly turn up the gain until it starts to distort, back it off a hair and your set. Do not exceed your max volume level once you set it. you could risk ruining your amp, subs or speakers due to clipping. |
Bronze Member Username: Splinter00Post Number: 11 Registered: May-06 | ok, what are the "gains" exactly, on the side of the amp it all says: Input level: min-max subsonic: lowest 15 highest 40 input sensitivity with 2 options:100mv-2v or 2-8V bridged mode: slave or master Phase: 0 or 180 low pas 50 lowest, 150 highest bass boost 0-18db also theres a remote level controller what should i do with that? can someone point me in the right direction? |
