The brotha said Electwicity, I dropped the phone.😂😂😂😂

This has been the simplest video that I've seen that explains this concept in layman's terms, so that anyone that even have a child's comprehensive ability to think can understand it😂 thanks and damn good job👍👍👍

PERFECTLY EXPLAINED FOR EVEN AN INTERMEDIATE BASS HEAD!!🔥🔥🔥

Lower ohm , more power

I run a single dual 4-ohm 12 wired at 8 ohms in a sealed box and it sounds amazing. I don't want my Subs to be so loud and Punchy that all it does is rattled the s*** out of my car and sound like crap. Personally I prefer a deep rich accurate sound over a subwoofer that is trying to Rattle my teeth out of my head.

Exactly. The only way a sub will hit harder than another is dependant on the ohm load you wire your sub by on the amplifier. With monoblock amplifiers you get more benefits of power according to less resistance. With A/B amplifiers you typically get the most out of it running 4ohms bridged. By having a choice of the ohm loads on a subwoofer you get the opportunity to determine the amount of subs you wish to run and what ohm load wiring them up as which suit the recommended tolerance (RMS) your speaker can tolerate at a consistent amount of power. Great vid. Knowledge in this case is power! That's a fact!

Why does this video have 8 dislikes? This was knowledge shared here! SMH, I don't understand these people man. This man took the time to explain a question I see alot of people ask and you give him a thumbs down? Thats Ridiculous, man. Anyways I appreciate you taking the time to explain this. 😁👊

I'm completely new to music, but you just really educated me! Thanks!

Really needed this information before making my next purchase. Thanks!

Thanks for explaining this to everyone. Car audio shops don't explain this to new Basshead. I know my stuff but lots and lots of people need to know this👌👍👍

Very detailed video explaining ohm loads. I always check a wiring diagram just to make sure I've wired down to the load I've intended for. The raffling is a great idea. I think whomever receives it will be asked about there system and say they got their box from you, increasing your business. Great video 💪🏾😎

You sound like an old gucci mixed with yo gatti Keep up the good work bro I enjoyed every video of yours

Dude this video has helped me so much, thank you!

I did a test using my earthquake home subwoofers. These are the home models that they make. Keep in mind, they come wired in a 2ohm configuration from the factory. Kept all settings the same on everything for each test. Rewired the DVC sub for each test. When I went up to 4ohm, It was much quieter in volume plus the sound quality diminished a bit. It didn't have that robust/phat quality that 2ohm had. In conclusion , if you're listening to a set up with 4ohm then listen to a different set up with 2ohm, you're not necessarily gonna hear the difference. But when you take the same set up and go back and forth from 2ohm to 4ohm, the difference is big!! My test was done on an earthquake home subwoofer. Yes, earthquake sets their stuff up to 2ohm from the factory as I said earlier. But I wanted to do a test to see for my self. On a side note it's amazing that they can put a 2ohm amplifier in a small box and not have it ever get hot like ever. My buddy Has the big SVS ultra 16 and he admits that my earthquake Supernova 15 Sounds better. He doesn't like saying that either. 😅😅😅

So now I will get 4 "6.5" Rockville k9 250watt rms 2ohm instead of the toro 6.5 speakers since they don't hav them in a 2ohm version that I hav seen yet... Thnks for ur videos and keep bassing out!!

Thanks I was looking around for an explanation keep preaching and teaching

Thanks for the content. Sound great at 1.5 speed

When I was 20 years old I was hot and had a lot of energy and was living life at 2 ohms. Now I'm living life at 8 ohms. I sound better and I'm less hot, and I have a lot less energy.

For those wanting the formulas. Series wired coils or drivers: total Resistance = R1 + R2 + R3 + R4 + ... Parallel wired coils or drivers: total Resistance = 1 / (1/R1 + 1/R2 + 1/R3 + 1/R4 + ...) Great video and content.

Man i appreciate this video.. im trying to put my 1st lil project together. KEEP IT UP BIG DOG.. I SURE WISH YOU WOULD MAKE BOXES FOR SILVERADOS BOSS..

Trying to read the captions is friggin hilarious!!😂

I love the content ! Have you started consulting yet I’m building a system and I want to build it as efficiently as I can ?

Best video on the subject

Lower ohm more power higher ohm less power its more important how your box is tuned to the sub air spec than wattage all depends if its daily music or bass comp burst setup

Another informative video.👍😎🔥💯

I had watched these videos so many times I'm at the point when i learned everything 😂

I wire my subs in parallel, so I buy 2 subs that are dual 4 ohm voice coils and wire them in parallel down to 1 ohm

Thank you O.G🤙🏾

Hey MBE...have u ever noticed that subs with a lower impedance usually are more sensitive than their higher impedance counterpart? Would that cause the output difference in what ppl hear?

Great video

Thank u soo much the way u explain this to a newbie BassHead I hav a 1200watt rms 2ohm taramps...and thanks to u I almost bought the wrong speakers!! I wanted to get 4 "6.5" toro fierce 4ohm and then wire down to 4ohm but it looks Ike its better to jus stay with a 2ohm speakers instead....😩

AND YOU WOULD be correct it's a DANCE between a particular amp and sub combo and owners preference my set up is ..4 d2subs wired @1ohm each to4seprate amps 1ohm each and that ish is violent!!!! ...and controled

Thank you for the nice video, Need an advice please. I just installed the TS-D12D4 600 rms dual voice coils 4 ohm each with the GM-D8701 rated 300 whats at 4 ohm, connected in series at 8 ohm, I'm concerned about sound quality more than spl, What do you think about connecting in parallel @ 4 ohm would be better ? thanks again

So what's the benefit of dual voice coils, strictly wiring flexibility or are there benefits to sound quality as well?

Simple. U da man thanks bro

I was just telling my homeboy this the other day

Goat. MBE 💪🏾💪🏾

Thank you sir

Could you please please please do. A video on how to wires 4 of these up

Hey MB I am interested in one of your horn enclosures. I have 3 american bass vfl 8s in a 2014 nissan pathfinder.

What he is saying is correct but sometimes the lower the impedance the lower the frequency for eg like in sundown subs

Good stuff my man. Im learning.

Hey which is a better setup? A 2x2ohm sub with 1ohm amplifier in series or 1x1ohm sub with 2ohm amplifier in parallel? At the same power.

I have a 2500 W amp 1-ch and two dual voice coil 12s what’s the proper way of wiring???? MTX design ported box chambered and ported…?? Parallel wiring or series parallel?? I love your videos by the way new subscriber

Thank you

Newborn basshead here,jst gt 15"sub,w/highquality prefab ported box,all the swamp homies have n opinion on inverted or not?durango suv.wnt massive drops,mids&highs on point,help..direct me 2 ur best video 4 knowledge.also,big fan!!!

I see a video all things equal it was said if I remember correctly that wiring a sub in series promotes better SQ than parallel because you basically have one long coil vs 2 separate coils...makes sense I suppose but I don't know personally but I trust there opinion the person is quite educated in sub woofery...

feel like I'm sitting at the table getting the talk

Hey i got a quick question! My audi factory amp is 8ohm and how do i need to wire my dual voice 4ohm sub? I just installed it myself replaced my factory sub…. Idk if i wire the subs correctly! So i wanna double check if i wire the sub properly… so i wired 1 wire to + & - and 2 wires each wire + & - to the amp … is that right?

Preach it. Do them pushup and learn ohm's law!

Hey im getting low low volume with a 8 inch at 4 ohms. 400 RMS. 1200 WATT amp puts out 500 RMS at 4 ohm. I also have the active LOC. EVERYTHING HAS TO BE TURNED UP to sound right. Should one 8 inch Skar 400 watt RMS at 4 ohms with 500 watts RMS from amp be loud enough to sound balanced without turning everything up?

Great video OG my question, i have dual 2ohm sub rated at 1500rms: amp is 2000 @1ohm and 650 @4ohm. I get that i will have more adjustability running 4ohm but my buddy say it will sound better at 4ohm. I don’t see how if only 650 @4ohm, I’m currently running sub at 1ohm since amp is rated 2000 @1ohm. Both sub and amp is ct sound, sub is 10” meso. Any info would b great

If you don't have a good dampening factor on your amplifier? Half ohm and 1ohm is going to sound muddy?

That's right ❤

Damn I just got an audio lesson from Berny Mack 😂

I have a question 🤔 Matching subs to amp. Is wattage shared or split into multiple subs at it's final load ohm rating? Example: Skar amp1500@2ohm into 2subs dvc2 800Rms 1600max. So, am I only getting 750watts into each sub? Or up to the whole 1500watts into each sub. I know 1500 at the amp final@2ohm. Can you calculate this for me. Thanks

Who keeps disliking your videos??

Subs with multiple coils can usually handle a smaller enclosure better

And are there any rules consider to follow for sealed 1cuft enclosures... if you dont have room for ported?

The question no one answers is the pro and con. Sound, durability etc. Whats the trade off.

Series you add the ohm loads of the driver..parallel you divide it..

Teramp got that new .5ohm - 2ohm amp. (Smart 3, .5 - 2 ohm)

Question: Then lets say using a Taramps Smart 3. Which says it puts out the same 3k at 1Ohm or 2Ohm. If possible wire it to 2Ohms for efficiency?

Hi MBEnclosures I want to get the following SUNDOWN AUDIO SIA-2500D mono amp.. 1ohm 2500W, 2ohm 2500W, 4ohm 2000W SKAR AUDIO VXF-12 D4 12" 4OHM Dual voice coil 3000W max 1500W RMS ( x2 speakers) SKAR AUDIO DUAL 12" PORTED SUBWOOFER ENCLOSURE (SK2X12V) 4.00 FT^3 @ 32 HZ in your opinion is this a good matchup

So i got a question, I have a 2ohm Taramp 800w Bass Amp and I'm looking in getting 1 6.5" 800w Subwoofer but i seen same Sub in 2ohm & 4ohm, which one would you Recommend me getting if my amp is 800w 2ohm??

In my opinion running anything to an amplifier at a higher ohm final impedence sounds way better..... ya its alot easier and CHEAPER to run at a lower impedence. BUT as long as the amplifier can produce ENOUGH power to whatever your running the sound quality is better and alot more powerful because your amplifier is not having to work as hard constantly at a lower impedence.......

Ya but, we also have to consider sub impedance rise. Running at 1 Ohm allows the amp to put out more power as the impedance rise. If at 2 Ohm, then impedance rise will be higher, thus lower output. So, ya if running at 1 Ohm gives you the power you need to push the sub to its capabilities, then run it at 1 Ohm, so long as the amp is capable of running 1 Ohm and designed to run at 1 Ohm.

i needed this video!!! daaamn lol

All about preference I suppose .

like a boss

And I hav a separate 8000watt rms taramps 2ohm for my 4 "12s" toro tech force

I know this is 3 years ago but can someone please explain to me how to get a 1 or at least 2 ohm load to 2 4 ohm 12" kickers? I have a mono that's 1500wat, 1000 watt at 2 ohms and 400 at 4 ohms. 2 ohms would be best cause my 12s take 300 to 600 watts max. Can anyone help?

My question I have a sub that is capable to wire as 2 ohms or 4 ohms, and an amp that can do 300w rms at 4 ohms or 600w rms at 2ohms. So should i wire it as 2 ohms for the amp or 4 ohms for the same amp?

Can my dvc 1ohm 1000w rms sub run at 10oh my amp puts out 2250rms at 1 ohm 1250 at 2 ohm

I went full CLASH OF THE TITANS @ 4 D1 3600+ on 2 Power Akustic 1ohm stable Master slave I called it the Horse and Chariot! Maxed out 23,000 watts. Now from what I learned from that is don't ever do that again unless your in a truck with 2 240 Amp Alternators 2 capacitor dbs readers an 4 3500 sub batteries.... the who car went up in flames from "Swing my Door" subsonic was in full tilt and Lpf was like on 15 I believe I forgot the radio I think it was an old school Pioneer on New school shit and yall that is THE MOST EVIL BASS I have ever felt that I installed by the numbers and I xould not slap for no longer than the song itself because it drained the blood out of every electronic component I had installed.... 5 years later I went 30+ no competition strictly bragging rights and trunk to trunk shutdown at car shows. Oh I also had a quad ported custom cherry oak wood box that was 100+ pounds easy. #SubsonicGods

Lol It doesn't matter how you wire the sub as long as you have the equivalent power in respect to the ohm load. However a sub with a higher independence will run at a higher efficiency and cleaner power. Will in return equal greater output 😉

Basic electronics 101 - very good video, thank you MBE - take a sub + like

So I I bought a 2ohm sub for my boat and didn’t like it. All I’d have to do is buy another 2 ohm sub, run it in series and I’d get 4ohm quality sound?!

Majority sub heads has 1ohm dual to a 1ohm stable amp set to parallel or series/parallel set to 0.5 ohm load but not a fully electrical power supply system making amp and sub In to thermal issues daily so the volume never goes to full tilt but thermal heat..

Yes

I have two P3 with a rp 1500 .1d skar amp how would u wire it up ????

Okay I have 2 2ohm DVC rated at 750 each I'm looking for an amp that does 1500 watt min at 4ohm The amp has way more power at one ohm but that's not the point. When you run an amp in lower ohms is it working as hard as it would if it was running at one ohm I'm only asking this because of your video from back in the day in regards to the water faucet and one on being wide open in the water going everywhere and then four ohm being more of a controlled flow of water that's why I went that way am I on the right track I just want to confirm that what I'm doing is actually legitimate

Let’s say you had a JL audio amplifier at 1ohm it’s rated 500w and compared to an jl audio amp rated at 4 ohm 500w same sub dual 2. Match amp rated ohm is there any sound difference I try to explain lol so is 500watt at 1ohm or 4ohm better or worse sound quality or loader or no difference

the question i had was if u have a 1000w rms amp (on 1 ohm) and a 500w rms sub (on 1 ohm) is it worth to wire the sub down to 4 ohm.. to give it a better chance of surviving the amp.. or just keep the amp on 50-60% max... (im betting on the second option).

Does a 2 ohms voice coil have a high resistance then a 4 ohms

So 1500 watt at 4ohm is better/ cleaner then 1500 watt at 1 ohm

Lol electwicity

YO MBE. Can you explain how some amps can put out the same power at 1 ohm and 2 ohms? Seems like black magic. Thanks

A 4 ohm 1,000 watt sub hits harder than a 1,000 watt 2 ohm sub due to twice the BL and better damping factor. Simple fact.

👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾

The video started about comparing Ohms but quickly changed to which sub hits harder with more watts... compare the SAME watts to the two different ohm loads. The graphs change. The title should he changed as well!

What about sharing wattage meaning one sub on 1000 watts vs two subs on 1000 watts. In car audio if you pretend to know something there always someone who actually KNOWS

lower resistance more power

The lower the ohm the the lower bass will be.

Hes confused..lol 4 ohms 500 watts bro .... we stil fam tho i like ur vids.. !

5:50

Basic elec-twisity 🤣

What’s ohms law

lol awww if it doesn't their wouldn't be a word called bridged

I take the cheapest amps and create the best sound.i hook up music,guys have spent thousands to create the sound I make for hundreds.😂
