[QUOTE="onlyphases, post: 359366, member: 551765"] thanks guys I am looking at the e12a.22 (dual 2ohm speakers) I wanted a pair it would be nice to send 500 to 750 watts to each speaker so i was looking at the Audiobahn 1800DT i can wire the subs in an 4ohm load each then put both subs (as seperate 4ohm loads) in parallel to make a 2ohm load to the amp. The amp does not deliver full power at a 2ohm load and the load that induces the signal reproduction to decline (S/N ratios is not at its highest point; goes down to something like 88 if i remember reading another post right) This is why i raised the question about running just one set of voice coils on the subs to extract full power from the amp (by an 1ohm load) AUDIOBAHN A18001DT Specs: Class D Circuitry Multi Stranded Power Supply Toroids THD: 0.05% S/N Ratio: >100dB; Frequency Response: 10Hz - 40KHz (+/- 1dB) Variable 18dB Low-pass Crossover: 50Hz To 250Hz Variable Bass Boost: 0 - 18dB Variable Bass Boost Frequency: 40Hz - 100Hz Subsonic Filter: 20Hz to 50Hz Variable Phase Control: 0? - 180? Large Display Volt Meter With blue Illumination Throughput RCA Connections 4-way Protection Circuitry: Thermal, Short Circuit, Overload, and DC Offset Dual Cooling Fans 4 Ohms Mono: 600 x 1 2 Ohms Mono: 1200 x 1 1 Ohm Mono: 1800 x 1 If i hook up the pair in a 2ohm load, each sub will see approx. 600W giving each VC 300W (is that correct???) [COLOR=DarkOrange]Another Q: How does the Subsonic Filter work (particularly with these subs)???[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]BTW: would prefer to use only one amp for the subs instead of two seperate amps[/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed] [/COLOR] [COLOR=DarkRed]ALL Suggestions and comments are welcomed[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
