That might be tough to get more power than the hifonics u got...those subs wont handle too much more than that

the subs handle 750rms each and i have em wired down to 2 ohm each and the amp is powering 1200rms at 2 ohms so i have the level a little over half so it don't blow up the subs. thats why i was thinking to get a new amp.

You cant have 2 4 ohm subs wired down to 2 ohms

And tht amp doesnt do 1200 @ 2 ohms maybe 900

Ok i think ur confused if u have each sub wired to 2 ohms each then thats 1 ohm not 2...that thing proly does around 1500 at 1 ohm which is 750 a sub...and if your worried about blowing them why would u want a bigger amp when u are already at rms

my subs arent wired together there each going to a channel

Its a mono block there is.only 1 channel

There might be 4 speaker inputs but its only 1 channel mono blocks are internally bridged..u r running at 1 ohm

why is there two channels on the amp to hook up two subs? now im really confused and feel dumb haha

the impala man is correct, the brz1700 is internally bridged, if you plug each sub @ 2ohms into their respective set of terminals. you got them at 1 ohm.

Just so u can hook up more speakers its all 1 channel....ur probably giving those cvx.s all they want safely

so i need help then.. How should I wire them to get my full power to my subs?

If you want more power start by gettin some beefier subs

 

[NASTY08IMPALA 5,000+ posts]

You already are running at 1 ohm thats the most your gona get outa those subs and that amp

 

[MK5 Fahrenheit 10+ year member]

so my question is that 1ohm on that amp is 1700rms which probably really is 1500rms is that for each subs or both.

OP 2 12 CVX's is a decent amount of bass. And the amp you currently have is pretty decent. I have a feeling either you're running at 4 ohm or you need a new box. What do you have the subs in now? Ported or sealed or what? And how do you have the subs wired? Series or parallel?
