I am going to wire a 4-channel rockford (power 851x) to a w6 at 4 ohms..the w6 is duel voice coil but when i opened it..it origanlly had 1 voice coil connected to one battery terminal..so i plan to do the following

connect Voice coil 1 + to voice coil 2 + Voice coil 2 + to + Terminal Cup

Connect Coice coil 1 - To voice coil 2 - Coil coil 2 - To - Terminal Cup

channel 1 - to - Terminal cup

channel 1 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 2 + to + Terminal Cup

channel 2 - To - Terminal Cup

Channel 3 - to - Terminal cup

Channel 3 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 4 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 4 - to - Terminal cup

This the right way to go? knowin w6 can safley handled a 4 ohm load

Holy hell you're going to blow something up. When doing that you're throwing a 0.5 ohm to each channel. You're going to blow your amp as soon as you turn it on

Wat? I thought this would put out a 2ohm load only. wiring a w6 at 4ohm which is safe...

connect Voice coil 1 + to voice coil 2 + Voice coil 2 + to + Terminal Cup

Connect Coice coil 1 - To voice coil 2 - Coil coil 2 - To - Terminal Cup

channel 1 - to - Terminal cup

channel 1 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 2 + to + Terminal Cup

channel 2 - To - Terminal Cup

Channel 3 - to - Terminal cup

Channel 3 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 4 + to + Terminal cup

Channel 4 - to - Terminal cup

Isn't it the same as bridging 2 channels to each voice coil?

hmm...this is just my temp till i get other amp for other subs, i will be selling w6 and 4-channel. i am going to power it to make sure it still in good shape. 4-channel can power 1 sub at 4ohm cant it?

here are specs for amp

specs

is it possible to wire this amp to 1 sub usuing just 2 channels bridged at 4ohm?

all i need is 400 rms to power sub...since specs read 425 watts RMS x 2 in bridged mode at 4 ohms
