[QUOTE="djman37, post: 1075685, member: 554697"] first image(setup) is called 'strapping' only possible if manf. says it can be done. when mono amps have 2 sets of speaker connections they are available as an 'ease of use' for the end user, wired parallel internally. So, a d4 sub wired in parallel will give a 2 ohm load. [URL="http://imageshack.us"][IMG]http://img380.imageshack.us/img380/4708/d18hv.gif[/IMG][/URL] TWO 2 ohm loads in parallel gives a 1 ohm load. Your amp was seeing a 1 ohm load. That's why I was thinking your electrical system didn't keep up and might not have been able to sustain voltage to the amp. here's my crappy pic.
