on the setting that i have right now which came the way it is. what does the connection means

namyenruoj · 07-02-2009, 01:16 AM

what do you mean that my amp should be in the proper stable ohm how can i find that

lcurle · 07-03-2009, 09:41 PM

who makes your amp, and what is the model number?

namyenruoj · 07-03-2009, 10:20 PM

Pioneer TS-W307D4

it is a 4 Ohm Dual Voice Coil Subwoofer. What about your amplifier. it should say something like;

4 ohm - 300 watts
2 ohm - 600 watts
1 ohm - 1200 watts

if you do not know then post back here with the make and model of your AMPLIFIER and we can see if it is wired up correctly.

thank you all guys. everything works now. i can crank up my volume without the amp going into protection mode. i wired my two speakers in series to give 8 ohms in total. now i just have to wait until my stock stereo deck quits.

Good Deal

namyenruoj · 07-16-2009, 06:48 PM

one more thing Mr.Lee
since i have two channel amplifier and i'm only using one channel out of it the other channel is not doing anything what else can i do to make the other channel used of with out buying another sub.
i heard about bridging what is that?

jaggerwild · 07-17-2009, 07:45 AM

You use the power from one channel and the ground from another, essentially using both channels where as now your only using one.

namyenruoj · 07-18-2009, 12:01 AM

jaggerwild, can you repraise it again in a different way

jaggerwild · 07-18-2009, 06:36 PM

It eaiser to just show you how. See photo

The photo is of a dual voice coil speakers and a 1 ohm load, so make sure your could handle it first.I think it would be 4 Ohm's if you do not have the dual voice coil woofers.

namyenruoj · 07-19-2009, 08:55 PM

now jaggerwild i hope you don't get upset. i am trying to figure it out. since i have a Legacy LA 430 Series4 amplifier with RMS output bridge 500watts x 1 or RMS power/channel 125 watts x 2 and i am using only one of this channel to hook up my 12" pioneer sub. the other channel from my amp is not being use no wires in it. my 1-12" pioneer sub (champion series) with 400 watts Nom, 1200 watts Max, 4 ohms dual core.
i wires this speaker in series to get 8 ohms in total but it seems that my subs is not loud enough. is it because the way i hook everything up. i need more information.

lcurle · 07-21-2009, 12:07 PM

try wiring it up to 2 ohm instead of 8 ohm

lcurle · 07-21-2009, 09:15 PM
