[QUOTE="ndnbolla, post: 633479, member: 557729"] hey aneonrider, I see that you have the same Hifonics BX1500 Amp as me. I also see that you have the same subs as me or do you? Are those 4 Ohm Type R's or 2 Ohm. If they are 2 Ohm can I just use the same exact gain settings as you since we do both have the same amp and subs I think. If you dont have the 2 Ohm subs then forget everything I just asked cuz those are what I have. Anywayz, The hifonics amp is rated at 1000W at 2 Ohms. I will also be doing a 2 Ohm wiring for the subs (parallel). So should the voltage be: sqrt(1000x2)=44.7 or sqrt(1500x2)=54.7 one more thing, what should i set these knobs ony amp to? sub sonic=? low pass=? phase=? level=gain fyi this amp will only be connected to my two type r's which are 2 Ohms DVC. Also my h/u is an alpine 9821 which has a preamp voltage of 2 volts. thats it and hope you can help. [/QUOTE]
