How can i get the most out of my amp?

Question

my amp is a infinity 1300A 300watts RMS and my subs are 2 1050w svc infinity 10"s their both 250watts RMS their in a ported truck box. how can i wire them to get the most power?

Answer 1

Anonimo, he states what brand amp and subs they are.  So dont know why you are asking for more info.  

Anyway, the 1300a, you dont have much options....

You'll want to run it in 2 ohms mono.  that will give you the most power.

basically like that.

Here's your subs:

And your amp:

Answer 2

Wire the positives from the subs to each other and then to the amp. Do the same with the negative wire. That will wire them parallel at 2 ohms.  

Answer 3

I would like to help you, but I need more information. The information needed to be able to help you:

1. If it is AMP. We need watts, channel, ohms.

2. If it is subwoofer. We need ohms, watts, bridgeable or not.  

Answer 4

most amps give you power by how many ohms your running the more ohm's the less  power with a higher sensitivity. you get the most power out of your amp and subs at 2 ohms or lower. most amps dont go lower then 2 ohms so thats there max. and thats what you would want it at 2 ohms is good if your pushing so high powered subs with good sound quality 1 ohms is quite low and subs dont really sound its best because the bass is so low. if you can find a amp were the amps lowest ohm level is 2 ohms  then you should get that 1. amps like hifonics, crunch, other companies like that have high power at 1 ohms  but the best sound of course would be at 2 ohms or 4  thats just how it works.

sense your subs are only single voice coils you don't have the same options of changing the ohm level to make it 2 or 4 ohms so your stuck with what ever the subs say they are. which is probably 4 ohms.

but from the box you can get the 2 ohm power. what you need to do is wire the box terminals at parallel  sounds trcik but its not at all.

its alot harder to explaining clearly so look at the diagram

Answer 5

This is one way to see wat cha amp is capable of without killing ya setup.

Set the gain on your amp to the minimum level.

Put in a CD and turn the headunits volume control up - you might have to turn the amp's gain up a little so you can hear the music.

When you hear distortion, stop, then turn the volume down until the distortion disappears. As much power as possible is now passing from the headunit to the amp. Leave the volume setting where it is and turn the gain control on the amplifier up until it's as loud as you wanna play it. If it starts to distort, turn the gain settings down slightly until it stops.
