dual 2 ohm

why are some websites offering dual 2 ohm kicker l7's and that is it. they dont offer dual 4 ohm. Are the dual 2 ohm l7's not as durable or as good?

Just a different voice coil configuration, gives you more flexibility in choosing what your final impedance could be.

A DVC 2 ohm could be wired for either 1 or 4 ohms, while a 4 ohm DVC driver can be wired to 2 or 8 ohms.

if ur running l7s, u would want a one ohm stable amp anyway (considering you'd be feeding them at LEAST 600 a piece), so getting the dual 4s would be useless

what kind of amp would you recommend for about $300 that would carry a 1 ohm load

i need something that is cheap until this summer

uhh the bx1500d (hifonics brutus 1500d) is one ohm stable and puts out around 1300 or so.

how many subs are you gonna run? if it's 2 you want to get 2 dvc 4ohm with a 1 ohm stable amp, and for the love of god don't buy hifonics.

i am going to run one for about a year and then i am going to buy another when i get a new car. i ordered one from hi fi sound connection that was a 2 ohm dual voice coil

what is wrong with hifonics?

yeah what IS wrong with hifonics?

they struggle to put out rated power, they overheat at 1 ohm, and they seem to clip alot easier then other amps.
