what do you want? 1 ohm? or 2? im pretty sure you cant get two out of dual 4's, but if you wire the subs in parallel, then parallel together, that will make 1 ohm. get duals 2's to get a final load of 2 ohms. audiopipes should be 1ohm stable.

So u sayin i can run it at 1 ohm and it want hurt amp

nah man im pretty sure those amps can take that

haha, i search on google to make sure and it took me here, good stuff.

The AP3000D is only stable down to 2 ohm. The 1500D will do 1ohm. FYI, the 3000D is just 2 1500Ds strapped inside one case.

The AP3000D is only stable down to 2 ohm

in which case the OP has to wire in series and present amp with a final 4ohm load

and no, you cant get 2 out of 2 4ohm dvcs on a mono amp. You can on a 2channel tho by wiring a 2ohm stereo load

well i was just going from the ap1500d, which IS 1 ohm stable. i just figured it would be.

The ap 3000 is 2 ohm stable. You can wire your subs down to 4 ohms, but that won't be getting the full 3k by far.

Do any body have a trade for a better amp that will work for me

wait a minute, that amp is 1 ohm stable....only with 2 channel though right.......

2 channel = 1500w at 1 ohms

1 channel = 3000w at 2 ohms

correct me if im wrong but couldn't the OP just wire EACH sub at 2 ohms and go 2 cannel...he would probably get around 1000w to each sub

2 channel = 1000w? at 2 ohms
