Mono amp with two subs? Help?

[iDrum182]

How would I go about doing this? Can I put one terminal on the box and run wire from that terminal to both the subs? And if the amp pushes 600 RMS and the subs are 300 RMS each, if I have that one terminal will each sub be getting 300 RMS? Amp is 600 RMS at 1 Ohm and subs are 4 Ohm DVC wired down to 1 Ohm... First system, thanks for the help.

Well, to truly tell you how it needs to be run, we'd need to know the brand and model of the amp and its specs, as well as the subwoofers themselves.

A quick version:
Connect the two speakers to one another parallel (positive to positive & negative to negative), then run the wire from one of the speakers to the amp. If it's a good mono, it should be able to run in the 2Ohm or 1Ohm load.

Wire your subs in paralell/paralell




The run the positive and negative to the pos and neg posts on the amp.

And this will give me a 1 Ohm load on the amp?

if the subs are dual voice coil...

You said that the subs a 4ohm DVC so yes. Each sub would be a 2 ohm load, then paralell the subs down to a 1 ohm.

pssshhhhh maxima's suck

Yeah they are 4 Ohm DVC. Thanks.
