Well i need a littel help on how to wire up my subs?

Question

i have 4 12'' 07 oroin hcca model and 4 of the 5000d block amps i no how to wire the hole thing up but its the hole 1 ohm thing im havein trouble

u think this will win first in comps. cuz i had it at 4 ohms and took 3 just 5 db away of takein 2 in the db drag so if ne 1 can help that be great

Answer 1

I think the ohms depend on how you wire the subs to the amps?

Answer 2

well every 3dB is twice as loud to the ear.

do what the guy above said for wiring the subs. do you have your amps strapped together? what kind of enclosure do you have? most of your dB will come from the enclosure and how the car is built. what dB are you doing now?

i find it kind of odd, no offence, that you have 4 5000w amps and good subs and are competing in dB drag and don't know how to wire them to 1ohm.....?

Answer 3

Ok first off i assume you have dual 2ohm voice coils. now to wire those up the easiest way to do it is take two small pecies of speaker wire and run it between both the postive posts on your subs, do the same for negative.  now hook you postive from your box 2 one of the positive on the speaker same for the negative.  sorry if u didnt need that but with 1omh setup your amp can push more power to your sub than your 4ohm setup, so i think you should easily make that extra 5 db's to get that second place. or you can try something like dynamat.
