[GrandAM12 10+ year member]

I have a Hifonics BX1500D Brutus Amp the specs are:

500x1 @ 4 ohm

1000x1 @ 2 ohm

1500x1 @ 1 ohm

0.08% THD

I also have a pair of Kicker CVR12-2ohm the specs are:

Dual 2-ohm Voice Coils

Frequency response: 25-500 Hz

Power range: 50-400 watts RMS

Peak power handling: 800 watts

Sensitivity: 86.5 dB

What would be the best way for me to wire these subs to my amp!?!? If you could give a detailed descripition that would help me alot. Thanks

wire the coils on each sub in series, then wire each sub in parallel for a final load of 2 ohms

check the Sticky for a diagram

wiring option #2, wire them parallel for a 2 ohm load, they should see just about the rms power they need, just keep ur gain down a bit.
