Help wiring amp - JBL 600.1

[Infinity2134]

I have my subs wired in parallel inside my enclosure and was wondering how to bridge my amp so that it will get the full 600 at 1 channel. Just making sure cause the amp didnt come with the manual. Thanks in advance.

need more info on the subs, dual 2 dual 4? the only way you will get the full load is if they are dual 2 ohm stable cause JBL's Website says that amp isnt 1 ohm stable so here are links to a wiring diagram site cause it is to long to explain the posibilities

Unless, they are single voice coil ...

Actually, if this is the JBL BP600.1, then it is infact 1ohm stable (it just doesn't put out any more power into 1ohm than it does @ 2ohm).

Also, since the outputs are internally paralleled, you can not bridge the amp. Those aren't separate "channels", just duplicate "outputs" (yes, there is a difference).

PS, here is the owner's manual: http://manuals.harman.com/JBL/CAR/Owner%27s%20Manual/bp_om.pdf

But, we need to know what impedence the subs are.

they are two single voice coil infinity kappa perfect 10's at 4 ohms a piece.

Then just put one on each "output"...don't worry about paralleling them inside the box. With one on each "output", they'll receive 300w a peice

Good times pulling out the subs and putting them back in the way i used to have them. LOL Thanks for helping me out - somehow i had a feeling that it needed to be done that way.
