[QUOTE="Briceyboy96, post: 8714965, member: 680744"] I currently have an auto tek mono amp which gives the following RMS power ratings [LIST] [*]RMS Power Rating: [LIST] [*]4 ohms: 313 watts x 1 chan. [*]2 ohms: 625 watts x 1 chan. [*]1 ohm: 1250 watts x 1 chan. [/LIST] [/LIST] I also have a 2 ohm dvc 15” subwoofer ready to go that is currently wired down to 1ohm. My wiring is already ran from my previous setup and is 4 gauge. my question is: Would 4 gauge wiring be sufficient for 1250 watts into the sub or is it possible to allow the sub and amp to run at 2ohms? I know wiring in series would give the amp 4 ohms but the sub wouldn’t see enough power in that case. Thanks! [/QUOTE]
