how do you bridge?

[slick]

ok well i am buying a pair of speakers (well already bought) but i wanna buy an amp and bridge it to 2 ohms which the speakers and amp are capable of but how do i go about doing it?

[cb7dazz]

im assuming its a 2 channel amp and that you have 4 ohm svc speakers

you take the positive of speaker one and the positive of speaker 2 and run them both to the positive side of channel 1 on your amp

then you take the negative of speaker one and the negative of speaker 2 and run them both to the negative of channel 2 on your amp

Unless he sent a good amount of money on the amplifier and wont be 2 ohm stable when bridged if its a two channel.



If he meant to ask how to wire subwoofers in parallel
If you have a mono block amp and it has two terminal on it then just put both positives and both negative on the corresponding terminals. If it has four terminals on the mono block, then they are common internally. So you can wire it like the last example or as labeled on amp.

n/m the last post yes that is one of the few amps you can run 2ohm bridged.

Yes (If you have do have two single 4ohm voice coil subs)

i have 2 coming that are single 4 ohm

[mcdizzle]

google "subwoofer wiring diagram", im too lazy or id do it for ya. it brings up links to websites that show you how to wire different ohm levels in different configurations

i have 2 coming that are single 4 ohm

Correct then.

MTX is a very good amp! especially that one you want!! Nice Choice!!!

I would go a different path!I would get something like this!

and get a 4ohm speaker....thats just me....I like the deep deep bass that Old School Rockford Punch amps put out

[slick]

i have 2 mtx 4 ohm single speakers coming. i already paid for them.

i dont really like the look of that amp. i am trying to keep the amp and speakers the same for the sake of me being picky like that. and if pioneer was better in subs i would buy them since thats the head unit i have

[radiuslight]

thats coo bro......like I said MTX is a very good choice....cant go wrong wit that.....

Its pretty plain and simple the rockford amp.....but the whole top is just a really good heat sink....that amp will never heat up when your listening to rap or anything with very long deep bass.....

anyways its your choice I hope your set-up sounds good!

[plee3]

That MTX you picked is a good choice. And I agree with you on the Pioneer subs. I have 4 of the 3001 (3000 watts) with a 2600W Hi Fonics Brutus and I feel like Im missing something I dont feel the bass in my chest like Im suppose to. My buddy has the 8001 MTX mono with 4 Solobaric L7's, my brain shakes when I ride with him!
