bridged is when you combine two channels into 1...

the + of one channel and the - of antoehr...

basically, making 2 chanels into 1.. this will generally double to power output...

which amp exactly?

first up, yes, it can be bridged...

take a peek at the stats where is rates the pwoer.. first lists it as 4x howevermany watts... then 2 x howevermany watts,,, for future reference, thats how you tell...

ok, so basically....

which subs?

and yes, it would be a good idea to upgrade your ground and power wire to 4 awg wire depending on the ohm load youwill be running, i need to know what subs, and what voice coild configuration.

 

[chinxtaboi 10+ year member]

12" kicker compvrs

 

[Wonderbread 5,000+ posts]

ok, which model number?

which voice coild configuartion?

 

[chinxtaboi 10+ year member]

compvr dual 4 ohm i believe

 

[Wonderbread 5,000+ posts]

perfect...

wire each sub in parallel, showing the amp a final 2 ohm load... bridge teh amp down to 2 channels... (bridge each channel as per the wiring instructions provided witht eh amp..)

wire 1 sub to each channel.....

giving the amp a final 2 ohm stereo load, sending each driver 300 RMS i beleive.

 

[chinxtaboi 10+ year member]

where did you find the specs on this amp?

and would i still need to upgrade wiring if imonly running 300 rms to each sub?

 

[Wonderbread 5,000+ posts]

that link you provided me....

you really shoudlnt need to upgrade your wiring in this case.... never a bad idea, but you will be able to get away without it...
