I actually have 2 questions. 1. If i have a 2 channel bridgeable amp would I see any power difference if i do 1 channel at 4 ohm vs 2 channels at 2 ohms? At the end of the day either way i would still get 550 total watts but want to make sure i am not missing something. 2. I am wanting to keep my amp at a 4 ohm load to keep the strain on my electric system down. Not very many 4 ohm amps that put out a 1000 watts ( and the three i have found r $500 each or more). If I go to a 1 ohm stable amp i am sure my lights will dim. And I dont want that. Any thoughts on 1 ohm vs 2 ohm vs 4 ohm? I m lucky enough that my sub set up allows me any of the 3 options.
confused on how ur sub set up allows for all 3?? and my amp still dims my lights at a 4 ohm load.. and i have big 3 done..
I have 2 10 in DVC 4 ohm subs in seperate boxes. So I can run 1 amp for a 1 or 4 ohm load (paralell or series) or run 2 amps (1 per sub) at 2 ohms per sub. Damn. Ur lights still dim at 4 ohms. I may consider 1 ohm then. More amp options (brand and price wise).
i mean they dont dim alot.. but the do dim a little with bass hits.. and im not really pushing the amp very hard at all.. i think in most cases ur gonna have some dimming unless u have an extra battery in the trunk..
The first question, mo difference between 2 ohm per channel or 4 ohm mono. Second question...If you use a 1 ohm stable amp that puts out say, 500 watts mono, or an amp that does 500 watts mono at 4 ohms....all things being equal, the current draw will be the same for each
