Again, this is for 2 RE 8s (dual 4 ohms)
Option 2: Both voice coils wired in series. This is useful when wiring multiple subwoofers to an amplifier. For example, wiring both coils of a dual 4 ohm subwoofer in series produces an 8 ohm load. Wiring this in parallel with an identically configured subwoofer produces an overal load of 4 ohms - perfect for most bridged two channel amplifiers.
Excuse a noob... WTF is a bridged 2 channel amp? Does this mean 2 channels merged into 1 to produce 4 ohms?
Having a hard time picking a decent amp here. I want to send them atleast 200 watts RMS each... should I buy a one channel amp that can do 400 watts @ 4 ohms, or a two channel amp that can produce 200 watts each @ 4 ohms.
Why can't I find an amp that can run 400 watts @ 1ohm? RE advised me to go with Hifonics BX500D, but 250 watts RMS to each of these little 8s????
