OP E Elitemafia 10+ year member I've got Shivas 172 0 Chicago Feb 22, 2005 Thread Starter #17 Nope it's just the smell that makes me think they are roasting. The only way the subs work without the amp going to protection is by wiring them in series to their own channel. I guess i'll just leave them and if they blow ill deal with it then.

Polecat 5,000+ posts Team Kicker Manager 5,276 15 Stillwater, OK Feb 23, 2005 #19 You should buy two 2 ohm subs and parallel wire them into 4 ohms bridged. That is how you will get the most power out of your amp. Click to expand... two DVC 2's get you 1/2 ohm, 2 ohm or 8 ohm...not 4.
