What channel do I use for my subwoofer ?

[ORTIZEN]

I just bought a 5ch Rockville amplifier model rxd -m5 8000 Watts class D monoblock high power amplifier.. I'm going to have this amplifier powering my 18 inch fi BL subwoofer. I'm wiring it at a 1 ohm load but I'm unsure what channel to hook up my RCA to...

a mono is not a 5ch...

a mono only has i set rca input. meaning a left and right rca input.

yes man you have the wrong amp for that sub, you need lots of power for that sub.

That amp is designed to run 4 channels plus a small sub

Channel 5... BUT that amp is NOT 1 ohm stable and wouldn't be enough power anyways. Return it and buy a good mono amp.

I guess nobody actually looked up the amp. The rxd-m5 is a mono amp not a 5 channel that is 1 ohm stable

If you got the rxd-m5 it only has one set of inputs which is where your rca's will go. It is only one channel (mono means single or one) not 5 channels. The rxh-f5 is rockvilles 5 channel

Just read a little bit of the write up on that amp. 8000watt. 4000rms. 2000watt cea. Sure! Lol. And it has this new technology to give it punchier bass. Uhuh. Lol
