Mono amp with outputs for 2 subs

[CHUMCHAL72 10+ year member]

So I have a mono amp and it has 2 sub outputs and I want to wire it to 2 subs

So my question is to just use one output and wire it at 2 ohms

Or can I use each output to each to each sub and if I can how would I do that and would it be enough power to each sub

Here's the specs of the amp/subs

The amp is a monoblock class D

4 ohms: 450w x 1ch

2 ohms: *900w x 1ch

1 ohms: 1200w x 1ch

10" SVC 4 ohm

Peak: 600w

RMS: 300w

I had the same question last week. I was told it is for ease of wiring. Both negatives are connected to the same contacts in side as well as the positives. You can wire to either pole and be ok.

The 2 outputs on a Monoblock are for ease of installation for wiring multiple subs. With two 4ohm SVC subs, you can do either....wire them internally in the box and run one wire, or run both subs to the amp and use both outputs....the power output will be the same either way.

Well with just using the one output the way I was told to wire I would get 450w to each sub then turn the gain down

So how would I wire with 2 outputs and how much power would I get to each sub

There are not two outputs, there is only one.

Then what explains 2 positive terminals and 2 nigitive terminals

There is one output with 2 pairs of terminals, which is wired in parallel internally.

Ease of installation....it is a mono signal, no matter what. Personally, I use both sets of +&- for my set up. But the power out put is just the same as if I were to run one wire from the amp and split it to the 2 subs. I just like using 2 individual runs. The amp does not put out any more power into a given impedance, if you use one set of outs or both...the power output is the same and is divided by the # of subs used, assuming they are all the same type.

Ok so how would I hook up my subs with it them

It says I can wire it in parallel and ger the right load of watts so if it's wired internally could I just hook up each sub to each terminal

Riiighhtt..

 

[Sonic. 10+ year member]

+ve end goes to +ve on amp, likewise -ve.

Yes that would work too, only thing you would have 4 wires from your box, with the above diagram you will have two wires instead, your choice !

Ok thanks with the picture you just put up it would be like putting 2 positive wires in the positive terminal and 2 negative terminals in the negative terminals
