If you were to hook up 2 SVC 4 ohm subs to a 2 channel amp, your best bet would be to run each sub to a channel. This way, the amp can play at 4 ohms per channel w/o the risk of killing the amp.Minorthreat412 wrote:I still have one more question. Sorry. What if you have a 2 channel amp hooked up to two 4 ohm SVC subwoofers. What will the resistance be/How much power will the amp be putting out to each speaker?
Now, what if you hooked up two dual 2 ohm VC subwoofers up to that same amp. What will be the power and resistance rating?
Sorry again for these questions. It's taking me so long to understand. I don't know how 2 channel amps work exactly. Mono amps are easy because they are just ran parallel off of 1 channel. I don't know. Thank you again.
If you were to hook up 2 dual 2 ohm subs to that same amp, then i would bridge the amp and run the subs in series to produce a 4 ohm load on the amplifier.
Most monoblocks are rated down to 2 ohms or 1 ohm. Monoblocks are basically designed to be used for subs only, since they dont play in stereo.
Do you have a setup now that you are trying to wire up correctly? Or are you just trying to learn before you buy something?
