2-bxi2607d strapped?

[rain377 10+ year member]

I have 1-fi bl 15" right now. dual 2-ohm. i want to add another one and run 2 bxi2607d on them strapped. would that be overkill or should it work pretty well. if its too much what else could i do?

POOF!!!!!!....on prolly all equipment if you parallel the amps, or not worth it if you strap them at 4ohm

why is that? If i parallel the subs inside the box then series them to the amps i will get a final impedance of 2 ohms or 1 ohm per amp. What would be wrong with that?

One dual2......2amps....parallel sub....strapped.... .5 each amp

Other way........2ohm per sub

your not gonna wanna do 1/2 strapped daily.

why not just run one amp on each BL?

 

[rain377 10+ year member]

that was pretty much the idea. not 2 amps per sub. just have 1 amp on each sub but strap them so i dont have to gain match.

your gonna get more power out of them if you gain match and dont strap them. maybe 100-200 more watts. but if you dont compete it doesnt matter

okay lets see.

- 2 bxi 2607 strapped to 2 dual 2 ohm subs= great design.

2 dual 2 ohm subs (series the voice coils)= 4 ohm per sub

parallel both sub = 2 ohm

2 bxi2607 strapped nominal load = 2 ohms.

Perfect match in my opinion.

thats exactly what i was thinking. just keep the gains down a bit and it wouldnt be a problem. 2-2607d is more than enough power to run 2-bls so i dont have to worry about getting more power i just wanna run a common chamber box and not have to worry about gain matching. plus i can get these amps pretty cheap.

That would be 1 ohm to each amp, not 2.

Noo...it would be 2ohm

Parallel sub - .5ohm

Series sub - 2ohm

Both strapped of course

Strapped means two amps powering the same set of speakers. In this case, if you parallel/series the subs together for a 2 ohm load, then hooking BOTH amps to this one 2 ohm load, then you are NOT going to get 2 ohms at EACH amp. 1 ohm nominal to each.

Whoops...i was meaning 1 sub
