Jensen LXA400

[randyorr]

I need to know how to wire a Jensen LXA400 for a single subwoofer. It is a four channel amp, but Jensen claims it can be done. I don't have the manual and their website no longer has it for download. Somebody please help!

I would suggest not wasting your time. A four channel amp will most likely not have the power to maintain a subwoofer. Plus, Jensen's amps are not good at containing their magic smoke very well. I would look into a Hifonics amp, if your budget is tight, or even a Power Acoustik amp. Both would be better than the Jensen.

Thank you for responding. I only plan on having this amp for a few months, so if I fry it, who cares. I used to have a Phoenix Gold Ms 2125 but someone stole it. My sub is a JL Audio 12w3. It is running nicely off one channel right now, but I want more power. Jensen says I can bridge all four channels into one and get a lot of power, but they say the wiring is complicated. If I can get it to work that way, I will add my other 12w3. I built a new box for both. I know it is possible, but I have never wired a four channel amp that way. Please let me know if you know how to do this. Thanks.

I know the is an old thread but i had to tell you how much of a dick you are!

The guy just wanted help with wiring his amp and you pretty much tell him it's shit. well the 2 amps you recommended are no better than what he has. and yes a 4 channel amp will run a single sub, you assclown.

people like you make me sick.
