is this correct?

what amp do you recomend?

on a budget, a hifonics brutus 1200 or 1600 off ebay. or a used one that does 1500 rms approx. since the amp you have isn't stable at 1 ohm, it is a really bad match for those subs in about every way.

is it going to blow them or damage them at all?

Nope

no. there are many things that can blow a sub, but the most prominent cause is user stupidity, also known as "user error" in the customer service world (mine's more accurate). use the gains right, put it in a decent box, and wire it correctly, and you should be fine.

if you bridge them, you'll be at either 1 or 4 ohms. you'll have to do it at 4 ohms on that amp.

alt whine maybe?

Ok, first did you just change out the subs, or are the subs and the amp new? is the "screeching" coming from just your subs or out of your mids also?

 

[xbatxattackx 10+ year member]

the sounds is like a whine type of noise i would say mixed with like a sound an audience would make at a show or something. the subs are brand new out of the box. the amp was barely used. sound is just when i put the subs in.

do you have another sub you can hook up and see if it makes the same noise as the R's do?
