Running a monoblock in stereo?

[GAM3OVR 5,000+ posts]

the 2 pos and 2 negs usually makes it easier to wire a set of subs or a single sub

Say you got an amp that does 1000 RMS @ 1 ohm

And you got a dual 1 ohm 1000 watt driver

You run each voice coil to the amp to the inputs

so all 4 are used up

and TADA! 1 ohm load!

That would be a .5 ohm load //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif

Perhaps it was explained wrong to me

I'm going to investigate

Then why did the previous owner bridge it externally when he wired it to the amp? Just wiring convenience?

Further proof that people need to RESEARCH //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/thumbsup.gif.3287b36ca96645a13a43aff531f37f02.gif before they buy something...

The answer to that question is he probably needed it to be in series, rather than parallel.

You said a dual1ohm subwoofer, paralelled, would be a .5ohm load...
