Assuming im using dvc subs that have an rms of 250w
 what 4ohm load amp would i be looking at wattage wise???? would it be 250 watts RMS x 1 bridged output at 4 ohms. or would it be 500w?  what kind of mono and or 1ohm amp would i be looking at would i need it to be 250 at 1ohm or 500??? I get the sub and stuff but how does wiring of the subs in parallel and series as well as ohm at amp to ohms at subs affect the wattage being put out by the amp. Last but not least which of these two wiring options should i go with???? This post has been edited by urbandork: Dec 26, 2005 - 3:47 PM |

i believe you can take ONE DVC 4 ohm and wire it to be a 2ohm load...
Paralleling it...4X4/(4+4)=2 you do that and you can use a 2-channel amp where each channel is capable of powering a sub @2ohms --------------------  |
