[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 8490375, member: 576029"] you have the wrong impedance subs to get the most out of that amp. You have 3 options for wiring the subs to a single load (i.e. amp bridged) Option 1 - not an option [IMG]http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/images/woofer_wizard/2_2ohmDVC_05ohm.png[/IMG] Option 2 - not an option (amp is only stable to 4 ohm bridged) [IMG]http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/images/woofer_wizard/2_2ohmDVC_2ohm.png[/IMG] Option 3 - you could wire it like this and get about half the rated output power from the amp [IMG]http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/images/woofer_wizard/2_2ohmDVC_8ohm.png[/IMG] If you want to run the amp in stereo mode (one sub per channel), you want to wire the coils in series for 4 ohm Do this for each sub: [IMG]http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/images/woofer_wizard/1_2ohmDVC_4ohm.png[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
