so... okay... i know this has been explained to me several times.... but heres the thing...... this is the info on my amp....
» 2-channel car amplifier
» 125 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms (250 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms)
» 500 watts RMS in bridged mode at 4 ohms (4-ohm stable in bridged mode)
my subs are Kicker CVR DVC 2ohm
the wiring suggested by y'all is this....

but this gives a 2 ohm load...... my amp is only stable at 4 ohms in bridged mode..... so..... what does that mean...lol can I wire them like the diagram or do I need to put one on each channel?

 

the way it looks to me, your going to need a different amp to accomadate what your trying to do. because if you wire each sub up to 4 ohms and put each on a channel that will only give you 125 to each. your best bet would be to take your subs back where every you got them and get 2 dual 4 ohm subs or get a mono amp that does 500 watts at 2 ohms...sorry i couldn't be any more help, you may have other options with that setup but none come to mind...if i'm wrong someone please correct me as i would hate to give him wrong info..

 

can't take them back.... ordered them from crutchfield.... and wouldnt I be pushing 250 to each woofer??? bual channels at 2 ohms = 250 per channel according to the amp info..................... I was advised by several people on here and at a car stereo shop ot get the 2ohm subs..... whats wrong with wiring the subs one per channel? I want it wired at 2 ohms not 4.... so why can't I just plug one 2ohm sub into each channel?? wont that run the 2 ohm sub at 2 ohms????

 

bridge mono ftw

Thats all the info im willing to give tonight.


My efforts arent appreciated here so yea.

But jsut bridge it mono dude

 

but my amp is only stable mono for 4 ohms... wil it hurt anything to bridge it mono for 2 ohms?? i cant afford to tear up my amp

 

wire it up to 4 ohms

 

NO.

A SINGLE dual 2 ohm sub can be wired to 1 ohm or 4 ohms. you cannot produce a 2 ohm load off 1 dual 2 ohm sub, so no you cant wire each sub to 2 ohms seperately, it just will not work. If you had two dual 4 ohm subs you would be good to go because you could wire each of them to 8 ohms then bridge them together to produce a "bridged" 4 ohm load, or you could wire them each to 2 ohms and run one to each channel, my advice get a different amp cuz it's just not going to work..trust me.

 

how the eff do I wire them to 4 ohms? i only have diagrams for .5 ohms, 2 ohms and 8 ohms

 

Just rewire it.


but if you see it fit to get a new amp
JUMP on this

you will have to wire EACH one to 4 ohms CLICK THIS and look at option 2.
