what voicecoil configuration is it ? dual 4 or 2

well anyways, one of my friends had a 980... when there bridged there only 4 ohms minimum.... so you need to get a dual 2 ohm sub wired in series to get optimum power out of it.... but if you allready got the sub and its a dual 4 ohm coils then dont bridge the amp, just run the sub in parallel and run either ch1 or ch2

its the LT980/2 and i could get either the 2 or 4.... what would work better for my amp and how would i hook it up??? help is greatly appreciated...

I think you meant to say a dual 2 ohm sub wired in series to get a 4 ohm load. Because a dual 2 wired in parallel would present a 1 ohm load.

so run it in a series??? would it hit hard and sound good?

I would say bridge the amp, get the dual 2 ohm sub, and wire it in series.

The second picture in the first post. It should say on your amp which two speaker terminals to use in order to bridge it.
