3 2ohm dvc wired at 4ohm briged????????

[cleanmerc01 10+ year member]

i have some p3's that are 2ohm dvc and i have a 4000 watt amp that will run 2000 watt at 4ohm bridged. i can not find any info on running this subs at 4 ohm bridged. can you guys help me or is this impossible?

You can run a three ohm load. After impedance rise, you should be close to or over 4 ohms. Just be sure to watch your voltage and make sure you don't get any drops. Here's how to wire to 3 ohms

I think the only way you're going to get a 4 ohm load is to use only one sub because even with 3 subs, you can only wire to 2 or 8 ohms.

why watch voltage drops??????

Voltage drops are bad for amps. Running below recommended impedance increases the risk of those drops. Running at 3 ohm will likely rise above 4, so that may not be an issue, but if you're really running ~2000watts(I'm guessing you're not), you need the voltage to support it or you're going to fry the amp. If you see voltage dropping below 12V, turn off the amp and discontinue use until you have the proper electrical upgrades.

What amp are you running exactly?

lanzar pro max 282 4000 watts max at 40hm bridged. i figured that it would really be running 2000 watts

MOSFET amplifier with 2000 Watts peak power (4000 Watts bridged), 2 x 300 Watts RMS @ 4 ohms, 2 x 450 Watts RMS @ 2 ohms, and 900 watts RMS @ 4 ohms bridged.

Sorry bro , its only 900. And being a new lanzr you will be lucky if it even does that.

maybe get ~250W-300W per sub wired as posted
