amps that support strapping, like some of Kicker's mono amps, allow you to connect two identical amplifiers together, and invert one of them so the pair acts like a bridged stereo amp, putting their combined power into a single load.

a strapable amp is an amp that can be run in slave or master it has what looks like a telephone jack in the side of it you plug a telephone looking wire into it and the second amp takes the settings of the first hence the master and slave. if im correct correct me if im wrong o great and powerfull moderators! lol

Stapable amps, what's that?

i agree with ted if you really want to make sure you get strapable amps!

Thank you very much guys..... I won't be getting this sub, to expensive locally :sad:
But the info is great to know I can go fro a Sub with similar specs.

You mean the Sup or the Amp? (the pdf is for the Amp)
Yep the Sub is both dual and single 4Ohm
And the Amp is bridgeable and can run 4/3/2 speakers on 4Ohms.


:embarrass How does the dual 4Ohms Sub work? Does that mean a dual voice coil? Can it be connected to 2 amps, run as a 2Ohm or maybe 8Ohms???
Cheers
The only way to run a dual 4 ohm v.c. sub to 2 ohms or 8 ohms is the way you wire the v.c.'s together. Parallel configuration will give you 2 ohms and series gives you 8 ohms.

I would not recommend running 2 separate amps to a single sub. If the adjustments are off on the amp a little, it could potentially harm the sub. Just use one amp for that sub.

my sub is a dual 4 ohm i just has two voice coils i run it in two ohm off a mono amp. you can run them as 8 ohm or 2 ohm.
