Question:
I was jus wondering what my best option was with this amp i was told to buy a dual voice coil 2 ohm subwoofer and to bridge my amp and connect the sub parrallel which would get me to 1 ohm. I would just like some ideas and some opinions with this amp to get the "best bang for buck" as they say lol.
ANY INPUT WOULD BE APPREIATED
Will this all work.. Sub,amp, deck?

My MIDLAND 38 CB radio powers up but only works occationally, any ideas what's wrong with it.?
Your amplifier is rated for a minimum of 2 ohms in bridged mode, not 1 ohm. If you want a single sub, you could get a dual 4-ohm subwoofer and wire it in parallel for a 2-ohm load. If you want two subs, you could get two of the dual 2-ohm voice coil subs you mentioned. Then you could wire the voice coils in series so each sub is a 4-ohm load, and wire the two subs to the amp in parallel for a 2-ohm load. Alternately, you could wire each sub for a 1-ohm load and connect them to the two amplifier channels in stereo.I need to bypass code for rd1 radio in my peugeot any answers?
Basically, if you bridge the amp you need to keep the impedance at 2 ohms or higher. If you run the amp in 2-channel mode, each channel can be connected to a 1-ohm load.
What gauge wire would i need to run to my subs?
1 ohm is going to bang hard. just remember the lower the ohms the easier it is to blow your sub. i suggest using the new orion hp 2 ohm. it knocks like a champ. i paid about 250 for it a few months back. ive seen them on the internet for about $130I Need help with installing a CD player in the trunk of my '97 Ford Taurus?
If you don't want to spend more money on your system, your best option is just to connect each sub in its own channel, since your amp is only 2 ch, you can bridge just one sub, (assuming 2 ohm minimum impedance). Using parallel connection in bridged mode with 2 ohm speakers, will make the amp see a 1 ohm load at the outputs, but since your minimum impedance is 2ohm , your amp would definitely burn. If the money is available you should buy another amp identically to yours, or a more powerful amp.What type of amp should I use for (2) Kicker CVR 15 inch subwoofers?
Notice there is no rating for 1ohm bridged. It's likely that your amp will overheat and/or fry if you try to run it 1 ohm bridged. I wouldn't recommend that. You can get a dual voice coil sub with each coil @ 4 ohms and wire it parallel to get a 2 ohm load which will produce the 640 watts @ 2 ohms bridged.Okay i dont get the whole ohms thing and how it works subs and amps?
Very few amps will be stable at 1 ohm bridged - if it is it's going to be a very expensive amp.
