Wiring Comps

[plazman 10+ year member]

i know how to wire subs to a certain ohm load, but how would i do that for my comps?

My amp does 125@4 ohms...

JL and fosgate have great diagrams for wiring subs, but none for speakers.

it does 125 x 2 @ 4 ohms? then just hook the components up... and it'll be 4 ohms... unless you have some weird speakers...

Amp does like 250 @ 2ohms

125 @ 4

how would i wire them up for a 4 ohm load. My speakers are 4 ohms

XXX is still in Original Box in my basement //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/hilarious.gif.02a037aad04aa96f19982b298a3d70a8.gif

im thinking about changing the design. ( Again )

If i get the volume of the box, how do i calculate the port?

same concept

is it 125 x 2 or 125 x 1? if it's a mono amp that's usually for sub only...

since the speakers run at four ohms, all you have to do is hook them to the amp, and the amp will read the 4 ohm resistance and run at four ohms.

Yeah.......what amp do you have?? I hope you don't have a mono amp

Phoenix Gold R4.0:2

Specification

2 channel power amplifier

12dB HP/LP FIXED crossovers

Full range aux output

Dimensions: 11.75L x 10.875W x 2.25H

125W x 2 (4 ohm stereo)

400W x 1(4 ohm Bridged)

So you say just hook them up and i'll get a 4ohm load?

I wont be running 2 omhs to them, but if i wanted 2 ohms... how would the wiring be different?

 

[Slody4Futbol 10+ year member]

just hook one set of comps to each channel... that will be 125 x 2

How exactly would i wire all this up?

My Car has a 10 speaker system with amp in the back.

im only gonna run comps upfront.

im using my stock wiring.

2 Channel Amp and AudioControl EQX, Stock HU

Does my Wiring sound right?

From my Stock Amp Harness:

1) Connect Woofer & Tweeter to my new Diamond xover.

2) From my New Amp Connect the L/R front inputs to the amp and connect them to the high level input plug on the EQX

3) Run a short RCA to new amp and then run the the output of your new amp to the input of the diamond crossovers
