Wiring 3 subs 2 Amps

[Spldecendant 10+ year member]

I'm wiring 2 amps to 3 subs. I'm going to put 3 Postive to one 3 negative to the other same for both amps. But how will I strap the amps if this is the case. Also what amps would you feel ok with strapping at .67 so .33 each amp. It's going in a band pass so impedance rise is alittle higher then regular ported enclosure

Just no. Get one monoblock. Also, don't wire that low unless electrical is good.

They don't make a monoblock big enough and electrical is real good

What subs? Yes, they do make a monoblock big enough. What's your electrical?

There's no issue with strapping amps but you need to give us more info

I'd rather give one amp 2/3 ohms than two amps 1/3 ohm. Hby?

3 nsv3 18's there in a 4th order I was looking to strap 2 ampere 7500's at .33 each. Electrical is 2 370 mechman 6 phase external reg units. 8 runs Postive is 2/0 sky high same negative with, 12 deka g31's

That's why I'm asking for more info .. I'm sure he has other options wiring wise .. We don't know what Amps .. Or sub coil configuration ..

But I'd almost always choose 2 amps over 1 .. and there's lots of positive sides to that as well .. Especially on the meter etc..

Ya those amps should be able to handle that as long as voltage stays up .. I'd watch a couple vids on strapping amps tho because it's sounding like that's the issue .. Watching someone then copyin is usually the easiest

I get how to strap amps lol if it's like 4 subs 2 amps but with this 3,3,3,3 coils I'm not sure which way to do so

They still have 3" coils.. Three separate amps may be even better.

As far as monoblocks:

Audioque 20k

Banda 30kw

Taramps 30,000

also more

Aq20k does only about 10k and if I wired to .67 it's going to rise to about 1.5 2 probley so if I'm lucky 6500w clamped I want at least 4-5k clamped to each woofer, and Brazilian amps arnt good to be wired under 1ohm, other wiring configuration is 1.5ohm no good either won't put out the power

And 3 amps there not going to be strapped and idk how I feel about gain matching

Maybe I'm confused here but 3 subs shouldn't matter wire them up and run a single pair of wires back .... I don't see where the issue is popping up

They make amps big enough. ZX-26KW - Zapco Monoblock 20840W RMS Class D Low Range Bass Amplifier https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GBADJ9W/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_GIBWub0C213K3
