I want to get a couple subs that are 4 ohm DVC, the amp I am looking at meets the RMS power at 2 ohm but comes up about 250W short on the 4 ohms. I was wondering if I can wire each sub to its own amp, or would it be more efficient to try and wire them in parallel to one single amp? I am confused, some help would be appreciated, thanks.
I guess I really want to know the specs of an amp that will run two 1000w RMS subs in most practical and efficient way, with least amount of power and sound loss. Would it be better for the above mentioned ways or try and get each amp its own 1000W 4 ohm amp ?
I keep seeing diagrams for running them in parallel to a monoblock amp thats equivalent to the RMS power of the subs, would two 1000W rms subs each get 1000W rms from the amp, is that the whole reasoning behind parallel wiring?
Or should I just get 1 amp that is 1000W RMS power @ 4 ohms and then wire the subs to that amp ?
Thanks again just trying to really understand this.
