[QUOTE="bdavies11, post: 1677347, member: 563458"] I have a mono amp rated at 900 rms @2 ohm and 500rms @ 4ohms. I also have a DVC sub rated at 400 rms. I want to know how i should go about wiring it. Originally i was going to wire it just using 1 voice coil which would give me 500 rms at 4ohms. But i did a search on these forums about wiring wire a DVC sub using only 1 voice coil and i found that most people say its not a good idea. I could void the warantee and possibly damage the sub. Again, the sub is rated at 400 rms so which would be the safest way to wire it. a.) Activating only 1 voice coil and feeding it 500rms @ 4 ohms or b.) Activating both coils and feeding it 900rms @ 2 ohms (Of course i would turn the gains way down for option B.) [/QUOTE]
