[QUOTE="cbrrocketrdr, post: 2375333, member: 571988"] I have an Audiobahn A8000T...its a MONO channel amp. specs are: 400 watts RMS @ 4ohm load 800 watts RMS @ 2ohm load now I have a Treo Engineering 15" sub...its a DVC 2ohm...now technically im only allowed to wire the sub to a 4ohm load for the amp to read. but id like to get 800rms...now here's my question. can i run 2 positive wires from the amp positive to each positive coil on the sub and 2 negative wires from the amp negative to each negative coil? my theory is it would still read a 2ohm load and since both coils are hooked up it would split the power, thus putting 400rms to EACH COIL/ 800RMS total to the subwoofer....any input on this? if not possible no biggy i have a DVC 4ohm sub on the way that i can wire to 2ohm load but i wanted to run my treo in the mean time.
