Ok wiring its been a while?

if my subs are two dual 4ohm subwoofer and they are connected positive positive........negative negative 1 ohm load. what power should i get to each sub from a amp with this rating if the its a 2 channel amp so? i am not buying these amps just wondering what the ending power should the subs see if these would be true rms? if i would bridge the subs what would i see?

HK602SX

2 x 400W RMS @ 4 Ohm Stereo

2 x 700W RMS @ 2 Ohm Stereo

2 x 1200W RMS @ 1 Ohm Stereo

2 x 1800W RMS @ 0.5 Ohm Stereo

1 x 3600W RMS @ 1 Ohm Bridged

or

audiobahnA2200HCT

200 watts x 2 @ 4 ohms stereo

400 watts x 2 @ 2 ohms stereo

600 watts x 2 @ 1 ohm stereo

1600 watts x 1 @ 1 ohms mono

stereo, 700w each. Mono in a 1ohm load 1600w each (that's how a parallel circuit works, the wattage is not "used up" but the same throughout the circuit)

2 x 700W RMS @ 2 Ohm Stereo

2 x 1200W RMS @ 1 Ohm Stereo

2 x 1800W RMS @ 0.5 Ohm Stereo

1 x 3600W RMS @ 1 Ohm Bridged

One sub on each channel @ 2ohm, 700w to each sub.

Two subs, bridged at 1ohm, each sub would receive 1800w.

600 watts x 2 @ 1 ohm stereo

1600 watts x 1 @ 1 ohms mono

One sub on each channel @ 2ohm, 400w to each sub.

Two subs, bridged at 1ohm, each sub would receive 800w.

Um, no.

Voltage is same throughout the circuit. Current is divided between them (based on their resistence. And since they typically have the same resistence, it's shared equally between them). Which means the wattage (current * voltage) is divided equally between them.

whats the difference in stereo and 1ohm mono...........how do you get two dual 4ohm subs to play in 1ohm stereo mode on those amps or thats not possible?????

Not possible.

Stereo = one sub per channel.

Which leaves you with the lowest possible impedance per channel as being 2ohm (DVC 4ohm sub w/ coils in parallel)

1ohm mono would be the amplifier bridged into a 1ohm load.

hold on...squeak has nailed everything electrical on the head...

my question..

what subs are you planning to run?

voltage doesnt divide, current does.

so do Your legs.

oh i got 2 l7 15's 2 db drive 15's 3 re xxx 15's and i was just asking about the ohm loads dealing with 2 channel amps thats it thanks
