Need Some Help Wiring my Sundowns

[KJLiberty 10+ year member]

ok so i want to wire my two sundown e10s (2 ohm dvc) in my brz1200.1d at 2 ohms. so according to 12volt.com i wire them in series/parallel. but then im left with one set of wires to plug into the amp and the amp has two inputs even though its technically a 1 channel. do i just use one set of the pos and neg in the amp? or do i return the subs and get the 4 ohm dvc ones and wire them individually in series?

Just wire them down to 2 ohms the way 12volt shows...it doesnt matter about the amp inputs they are all internally bridged on mono blocks

the amp just has two speaker inputs for strapping purposes. just put them into one set.

I would trade those in for dvc4 and wire them to 1 ohm ...you will only be gettin around 500-600 out of that amp @ 2 ohms

Ehh i doubt it does 900 but if all the power u need is 600 then cool....dont really need 1/0 for that unless u already have it ...good to have for future upgrades..trade the e.s for sa.s and wire at 1 ohm ..be worlds louder lol

just get D4's and wire the E's to 1 ohm like you said , they will laugh at 550w rms ea and get as loud as a pair of SA's on the same power for 1/2 the cost.

it comes with the wire as a package deal. i dont have the money and room in my trunk for sa's thats why im getting e's. if this amp actually get the 900 itll be worlds louder than my current setup anyway.

just a side thought as well...the amp is CEA-2006 compliant and was thus tested to see if it indeed put out the advertised power. and it does because it passed the test(s) that the CEA put it through. so ill be ok with doing this i would believe. and i dont wanna over power them too much because i do plan on them lasting.
