Ha no thank goodness I got the DMM set to AC Voltage but youre right..well initially I was leaving the wires in, but last time, I removed them, stuck the terminals in and screwed the thing down from up top and voila!! No Freakin Reading still!!? AMp works fine, everytihn does, Im just trying to...

yes dual 2 ohm

Ok wewll shoot...last question. I have the LC2i hooked up to it too. Should I turn those boosts down too?

Ive been running a 400watt RMS 8" SKAR SVR sub with a Skar rp 1200 watt amp at 4 ohms. The amp does 500 watts RMS at 4 ohms. 500 watts amp, 400 watts RMS sub, I thought was perfect ( i also have an LC2i that adds bass) But Ive gotten advice from a couple people that I should wire it to run at 1...

But if I run it at 1 ohm that will be everything the amp can put out right? 1200 watts. Vs the 500 Im running at now. For a single sub with 400 Watt RMS, isnt that way too much? And btw, I also have a LC2i hooked up so I'm not pushing the amp a lot. Gain on amp is like 30%.

Yo, ,does the stock stereo come with woofers? (not subwoofers, smaller and used for bass) If so, tap into the woofers wires.You have a power amp to run the sub too?

Hey, is it ok to have it running where the maximize/clipping light comes on just when its really bass intensive and its blinking and not a solid light? I read that its ok if its just blinking here and there and not a solid light. Anyone know about that?

Cos when its at 1 ohms its running balls to the wall wide open. 1200 watt amp, running 1200 watts at 1 ohm. At 2 ohms like 800 watts, 4 ohms 500 watts. So, if you're running a 1200 watt amp at 500 like I am, its pushing the amp a lot less which makes for cleaner sound and cooler temperatures...

Hello all, so I have read a ton and heard a ton from users and I swear...it seems 95% go 1 ohms. the rest are 2 ohms. I read that higher resistance is better for quality of sound and defintely amp performacne...how hot they get.So I got a Skar 8" SVR 400 RMS and a Skar rp1200 that runs at 500...

WHat did you end up going with? Hope it was 8ohms cos of the amps power

Brother, I use an 8" and it kills it for what Im doing. And these get rave reviews by people sying it blows away their old 12 inch. Skar Audio 8" SVR. 400 watts RMS...like $75. Im running mine at 4 ohms with the Skar rp1200 watt amp. It puts out 500 watts at 4 ohms so its perfect

Oh really now? I make it a point to only give advice if I can honestly help and to NOT say things as fact if IDK. Is there anything I said that wasnt true?

And btw, the LC2i issue I think I need to look into it per your advice. But dude...I just realized when reading your reply here again...the first time where I was ablke to turn the LC2i up high before clipping...the RCAs were disconnected. This last time they were connected! That would make it...

Oh wow trip. Thats great advice. Im gonna check it with an outlet and ill report back since you took the time. Thanks
