[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 1128512, member: 561023"] If he bridges the amp to 2 mono channels then most likely it'll only be stable at 4 Ohms/Ch (as are most 4ch amps when bridged) He can't make a 4 Ohm load with a single Dual 4 Ohm sub. [B][I]wlmrs~[/I][/B] Do you already have either the amp or the subs? If you have one or the other but not both this is easily salvageable. If you have the subs (and they are both dual 4 Ohm configured) but not the amp, get a 2ch or mono amp instead of a 4ch unit. It'll make wiring much easier. If you already have the amp but not the subs get single 4 Ohm or dual 2 Ohm drivers rather than dual 4 Ohm. If you already have both it [I]can[/I] be wired a single coil to a single channel. The problem is getting the outputs of each individual channel matched almost exactly with all three others. A mismatched input can cause premature voice coil failure of one or both coils and that never makes anyone happy. [/QUOTE]
