[QUOTE="Senatex, post: 2134742, member: 570513"] First off, I kind of have a small grasp on what I am doing.. Enough that I know what I need to ask questions. Anyhow, I have a few questions.. A brief run down of what I am using. I am going to be running a PPI A600.2 Art Series amplifier, as well as another Art seriest amplifer with 300 watts rms... So ill be running 900 watts rms all together.. Anyhow im going to be running the PPI A600.2 Into two subwoofers. The Alpine TYPE S, Dual voice coil 4 ohm speakers to be exact.. Mainly because I kind of like alpine, as well as the rms maximum matches my amp exactly.. Leading to my first question.. I want to make sure I understand correctly my wiring for the first two subs off of this amp. First off, from what I was told, is I should be running the speakers in a series off the amp, as so I am able to get 600 watts rms from the amp to both speakers.. Shown here..Is it option 1, or option 2?? I believe option 2 if I understand correctly, the amp wont be able to handle the 1 ohm load.. Im not to sure on this...
