Not really, simple math.
If you went to high school you should know this. lol

lmao.

Yeah, it is. But, we're doing local maximum / minumum, so she asks us for it in that format. I forget what it's called.

I just felt like a wanker for putting that.

I took it a year go.

I have done alot of drugs since then.

Can't remember Limits maybe?

Why would you have even tried to put 6k to those subs. Man next time read specs b4 u go spend the cash.

When I'd get my amp on way to me I'd trade it to ya for one those sundown 3ks. I got a autotek mm3000.1 on the way.

Depending on the resistance, 3000 / 2 = 1500 != X (1000
Sorry, we're doing those dumb *** problems in my Pre-Cal class, and I keep thinking of everything in terms of less than or greater than. It's frustrating. I mean, personally, I'd do the single 3000D, but, it'd be easier to just set both to produce 750 rather than figuring out parallel / series to get 1500 between both of them.

(Something tells me OP has no idea what he's doing.)

The thing is that the amp does

3000 at 1 ohm

1600 at 2 ohm

800 at 4 ohm

Subs are dual 4.

So if I ran 1 of them at 2 ohms, it would be 800 to each sub. Would it just be better to run to each of them at 4 ohms and let them see 800 each? Can I do that? They are wired parallel now, and seeing 2 ohms each. Should I just change that to 4 ohms?

Anyways, checked with dealer, subs are fine still! thanks god. rattling because of either the box, or someone on CAC said that EQ subs have 2 dust caps and the second might be loose, which fits the noise perfectly...
