More OHMS- less power?

ya but if i hook 2 of the same amps to the 2 subs wont i be getting as much power as if i had 1 amp on 2 subs since u say to do it unbridged? each sub has 500rms, each amp outputs( 230x2@2ohm,and 460x1@1ohmBRIDGED)

if i hook one amp to one sub unbridged will i be getting all 460 watts, or will i be getting only 230 watts to that sub?

should i run it in mono bridged mode if i connect the subs as a 4ohm SVC sub and have it run at 4 ohms wich would result in 460 watts running to that sub?i think......

Your amps will do 2x150w rms @ 4 ohms, 2x230w rms @ 2 ohms, or bridged 1x460w rms @ 4 ohms.

Since the amps are DVC 4 ohms, you can wire each sub across the voice coils in series for 8 ohms, in parallel for 2 ohms, or wire each voice coil to its own channel on its own amp.

Another option would be to sell your 2 Kenwoods and find a single 1 ohm stable amp that outputs 700+ rms @ 1 ohm. Check the for sale section. I saw a couple Hifonics Brutus mono amps floating around. Then you'd only have to deal with one amp and it would really simplify the wiring/install. Just an idea... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
