I have a Directed 2400D and i have it hooked up to my DD9515 running at 3ohms. My DD has dual 1.5ohm voice coils. will the amp take a .75ohm load if i run the coils in parallel?
lol i hooked it up with a .75ohm load. WOW it pushes my DD9515 alot more now. if i get cooling fans do i just put them by the amp. also if the amp is 1400watts at 4ohms and 2400watts at 2ohms does that mean it is 3400watts at 1ohm or not necisarly?
No, it doesn't mean that at all. It isn't just a simple ratio. There are plenty of other factors involved.
And just be careful with it. Cooling fans may help a little, but honestly if that amp can't handle a ohm load that low then the fans won't help you that much.
yeah i just played some tones and some music (rap) for about a half hour and it only got a little hot. i should be fine as long as i keep an eye on it right?
Shane, call me at the shop. TinkerToy Customs 608-365-3500
Btw, I wonder if we've met at any of the American competitions. I used to run a car audio shop down there a few years ago. It was in the AutoXtras building on E.State, also worked for Columbia Audio Video, was over off Riverside. Anywho, we're a Digital Design dealer and I'd be more than happy to help you tune your system fo free.
should i jsut get a different amp or something? i want it for everyday driving but i still want to be able to turn up the amp for burping. what should i do?
and when you double half the load on the amp, the output doubles, so if you were pushin 2400 @ 2, more likely arond 4900 watts, even lower than that = even more watts
It will only reach this if u have an adequete chargin system
yeah so i really shouldent street beat it at .75ohms or can i. obviously i dont want to damage the amp. what do you guys think? i dont want to have to be worried about hurting it when im listening to music. does it just hurt the amp beacause it gets to hot or does it involve more than just heat? im also thinging about upgrading my 4 awg power wires to 0 awg knukonceptz wireing. wheres the best place to get that at?
yeah i know like i said im thinking about upgrading my 4 awg power wires to 1/0 awg knukonceptz wireing. i'll get a new ANL fuse holder and fuse for the new wire as well. is Ebay the best place to get the wire from?
