This might have to do with the dual voice coil design since one is likely sitting in front of the other on the coil former, and you will be only applying power to either the front half of the magnet field or the back half depending on the single coil you tried to use. I don't think you will find a speaker maker out there that will say its OK to use one coil. Hopefully Rockford built both channels to have the exact same gain factors and your signal is a true mono signal before its in the RCAs Theoretically there should be zero voltage at the point the coils connect in the center, if your amps output is balanced properly and ohms law holds up to its predictable out come. PDX F4 4 channel amp and dvc sub question. in this thread in this sub-forum in the entire site. One like Perry said, or Two: like Andrew Eckhardt posted: connect the coils together to form a 8 ohm bridge load to the amp, which will equal the same as what Perry said, since each coil will be loading each channel at 4 ohms each either way. I have a alpine pdx f4 4 channel amp and I want to wire it to 2 alpine spr 5.25 speakers and a Polk dvc 8'. I know I asked a ton of questions, but any help is much appreciated since all this stuff is giving me a headache.Two ways you can go IMHO. What would sound better, one sub pushing 700w or two both receiving 350w? I figure I could run into more power issues with the bridged set up. If I have missed any options here, please let me know, but its looking like I'd be better off getting 4 ohm subs and wiring them as 2ohm or bridging the amp, since my amp can't handle less than 2 ohms. So if I have two 2ohm subs on one channel it doesn't do me much good because each sub would only get 175 watts, right? Is there any way to wire one 2 ohm DVC sub per channel at 2ohms? However, I also see that you can wire two 2ohm DVC subs in series/parallel to get 2ohms, but I think this is for only one channel (which goes back to my other question). One 2ohm DVC sub, bridged, wired at 4ohms = 700w to one sub Two 4ohm DVC subs, 1 per channel wired at 2ohms = 350w per sub Here are the options I'm pretty sure I can do, and they seem to be my best options: I understand that what the amp 'sees' is dependent upon how the subs are set up, but are 2 ohm subs inherently any better than 4 ohm subs, since I can't go lower than 2 ohms on my amp anyway?

I have the 700s manual and here's what it says my amp can handle:

#4 channel amp to 1 dvc sub how to

I think that wiring the speakers in the car will be pretty straight forward, but I'm trying to figure out how to wire the subs for the most optimal Impedance. I'm hoping to use my original 2 Channel RF Punch 700S amplifier to power 1-2 12'' subs and purchase an additional multi-channel amp to power 2-4 speakers in the car.

#4 channel amp to 1 dvc sub install

The first stereo i ever had was installed for me, but I would like to install the next one myself. If the subs are wired in parallel, the total impedance in ohms will be 4 ohms. 1 DVC 4ohm sub wiring for 1ohm, 1ch amp.In car audio, wiring between 1,2,3 or 4 speakers that are a Single voice coil or SVC or even dual voice coil or DVC.

This is called bridging, and it’s a great way to get a ton of power out of the amp. The bottom line is I'm trying to decide whether I need to get 4 ohm or 2 ohm DVC subs, and how to wire them for the most powerful performance. One 4-Ohm SVC Sub A 2-channel amp is a perfect fit for this type of sub since the two amplifier outputs can be combined into one. How would this same thing work with 2 channels? If you wire 2 subs and the 'starting' wire goes from the positive end of one terminal on the amp, on to the sub(s), then does the returning negative wire come back to that same terminal (channel) on the amp or to another channel? The later makes no sense to me unless you're bridging the amp, but I just wanted to clarify.Īs a specific example, one such wiring diagram shows how to hook up two 2ohm DVC Speakers for a 2ohm load (wiring option 2) and shows the wires coming from one positive and coming back to one negative, I assume this is showing how they would be set up on one channel.

#4 channel amp to 1 dvc sub series

I understand the basics of how to wire either parallel or series but whenever I see pictures of wiring diagrams like ones on the Rockford Fosgate site they show lines, for example going from one positive terminal and then back to another negative one on an amplifier, but don't say whether its the same channel or a different one. I have a couple questions that will seem stupid and then some more specific questions. Hello all, so I've asked these questions to RF technicians but I usually get a short response that partially answers one of the many questions I asked, I figured I'd ask some of the same questions here and see if I can get some better answers.
