OK, check this out, this is my system

1 solox dual 1 ohm voice coils, 10 in sub

1 hifonics brutus amp 1606d, which is stable at 1 ohm or higher

THese people at texas sounds say they wired the sub using a dual amplifier formula,
red black red black, 4 wires from the amp to the sub, neither paralell or series!!!!!!!!!!!

HOW CAN IT BE DUAL AMPLIFIER IF THERES ONLY ONE AMP!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

wouldnt wiring the amp with 4 seperate wires to the four seperate connections PUT IT AT .5 OHMS?!?!!?!?!?

WOULDNT I NEED TWO AMPS FOR TWO A DUAL AMPLIFIER SETUP DUHHHHHHH!?!?!??!

im so angy my amp started smoking and its on protection mode now, its blown for sure. am i right or wrong

Well...if they have two positives and two negatives coming out of the amp they ran it parallel.If they didn't run it parallel,I don't even know wtf they did lol.Well now you have a good reason to buy a new amp :-)

Yes,it would put the amp at .5 ohms and that's way too low of an ohm load for that amp.

I knew it all the other install places i called said it was wrong,

what do i do, small claims court, sue them for breach of contract??/???

they said that it was a breach of contract because somone adjusted the gain level on the amp

that is complete bs

what do i do???
