Re: car audio EXPERTS please help....
Just to apologise for being a dumbass didn't realise it was dual voice coils. Never come across that before. What Jago suggested should be just fine. Voice coils in series, subs in parallel, into the amp in bridged mode. Though you would get similar power output from running the voice coils in parallel and running one sub from each channel. Running 2 ohm loads is pretty bad for thermal loading on amps. And if that is a class D amplifier, lower impedance loads will create significantly higher distortion. But most SPL cars sound like ---- anyway.
A good AMP should really have reservoir caps internally to cope with moments of peak power output. But a large reservoir cap is a good way of coping with uneven power demands. Where it won't help if your average power draw is greater than that of the alternators output. All of the caps i've seen that are sold for audio are way overpriced. And you could easily buy the same number of Farads from digikey for not much. |

wow so you have been doing this for 15 years, and"bumping since I was 16" and you don't know how to wire subs to your profile amp.

Ive been doing this for 15 years, seen my fair share of car audio in those years, and I can count on 1 hand, how many "real systems" ive seen and had a cap installed. we can "discuss" this all you want, but the supporters of a power cap can talk talk till they are blue in the face, because I will still have my opinion and what i have seen. |

fork, dont even try to flame dude, it wont work. first of all, i asked which was the better way and provided the ways i could wire it up. the question was not how to, but which way is better/more efficiant for the amp. any ------- retard can hook up a system, i wanted info on why one way was better than the other way. read my first post again. and yes, i have been bumping for 15 years, that doesnt make me an "expert" just like your 2000 watt system doesnt make you an expert either. |
