[QUOTE="Cin0s3, post: 7305857, member: 632749"] I have a Soundstream STL2.560 amp and 2 8" jbl shallow mount 4ohm subs. I am not sure what is the best way to hook them up. It is a 2 channel amp that can be bridged but I dont know if I should be bridging it in series or parallell. I currently have it bridged in parallell and it gets hot pretty quick (5 minutes or so) at full throttle and it shuts off for a couple seconds then kicks back on. I understand that this is a fail safe in the amp but dont know if I have too much of a load on it and/or I have the speakers not wired properly. I wouldnt think that wiring each of the subs to each channel for 2 channel operation would give me the best bang for the buck. Any help/insight would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
