I'm sure a lot people appreciate you doing this video. Although I'm sure the concept applies for all dual 2 ohm applications I believe our PA bass heads appreciate this video the most. Some may ridicule your language or choice of words, but not your efforts. I'm sure you're a beast now when it comes to car audio installation provided this video is 3 or more years old. Don't forget with success comes a lot of gratitude. So remember to thank the ones who helped along the way and tax the "HATERS".

Every other video I've seen has made it sound so complicated, but their diagrams are the same as what you did! Now I get it! Thanks for this!!

Me and a couple buddies did this in a 97 Accord. We used dual 4 Ohm 15's and a Hifonics Zeus ZRX1200.1D... MIght be pushing around 800 Watts RMS at 1 Ohm. It sounds insane in his ported box. He can only turn his deck up about a third of the way before it gets too nuts.

2 dvc 2ohm sub r either .5 or 2 and 8 ohm load one of the three.when u put them on a amp. not 1 ohm

GROUND TO GROUND, POWER TO POWER. I THOUGHT IT WAS NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE.LOL.

@BumpinThatBass He didn't say he was wiring them together. He said they would each go to their own amp output, not together. He is probably using two different amplifiers.

@SGlitches yeah. that's what i was trying to say. if you wire both subs down separately and wire them to 2 amps or 2 channels then yeah its one ohm. but if you wire it to a mono amp it's .5 ohm..

YOUR AMP WILL STILL BE RUNNING AT A 1/2 OHM. Just saying

@fennygolf yeah. thats for a single sub. but TWO dual 2 ohm subs can only be 0.5 ohm or 2 ohms. you can wire both of them down to 1 ohm to get 0.5 ohm.

yes, but he said his amp has 2 outputs. look at the rockford amps for instance, they have 2 outputs for a single channel amp, wich is basically what he did with his, im assuming he has a power acoustik amp too, which take after the rockford style. so really he did just drop 2 d2 subs to 1 ohm on his AMP. not the subs.

If you hook up all 4 of these runs into the amp, it will parallel it down again so it will be at .5ohm.

I got 4 of those so far, but I use the dual 4 ohm sub. Funny thing is they look a lot better upside down the way they are now then installed so a reverse install would be interesting to try out.

Yes. Anything that requires electric to operate creates a circuit. The power enter's the positive side, circulates through the electronic device and exits through the ground

Big props to u bro. Haters gonna hate. Who cares. Atleast u trying. One note. Just run both your bridge wires on one side. Then you wont cross wires. But keep it up.

@DaBandiiT No. Wiring in parallel will 1/2 resistance ending up with 1 ohm. If he took both speakers and wired them together and put them into the amp as a mono channel you end up with .5 ohm. So depending on the amp and the setup it could be .5 or 1, or 2 ohm depending on how you wired it.

50 cents twin lol

@DaBandiiT No problem. 8 ohms would be achieved by running each sub VC in series to make each speaker a 4 ohm load, then wire the two speakers in series to make it 8.

@DaBandiiT correct, but he says he's not going to do that in the video. He's going to run the amp in stereo, or to two different amps.

I have dual mofo-122x wired at .5ohm on an autotek 2050.1 and it is running great. Hits hard as shit even turned way down like I have it. Side not I ruined my sun room seal on my suburban

if you are using a bamf 5500 and you wire them in parellel to your amp then your subs are running 0.5 ohms with (2) dvc 2 ohm subs you can wire them eather to 0.5 ohms in parellel or 2.0 ohms in series just for the heads up

If you are using a Class D monoblock amplifier, or really almost any "subwoofer amplifier," for these drivers, then the amplifier is still seeing 1/2ohm anyway. It wouldn't make a difference if you did parallel the cables and then hooked them up, or wired the drivers separately into each channel on the amplifier output. Only way the amplifier is seeing 1ohm on each "channel" is if you are using a "speaker" amplifier, and it is a 2 channel "speaker" amplifier. But not many are 1ohm stereo stable.

@Samantha Bowers if both the voice coils and powers were parallel... He has the VC parallel and the powers to TWO channels on the amp. Mono isnt the only way to go.

dual 2ohm can be wired to 4ohm or 1ohm and dual 4 ohm can be wired to 8ohm or 2ohm

im looking to get a set of these but i dont know anything about power acustic, i have mainly only delt with memphis and kicker but im looking to try something new... is there anything i should know about them before i buy?

get a audiopipe 3k and run it at .5, wire resistance will bring it up to about .8ohms would be fine, those amps are a bit cheapy but can handle .5

Where did you get your box from?

In series you can wire a dvc 2 ohm speaker to 8 ohm parallel, 2 ohm series/parallel, 0.5 ohm series :-) mono loads, stereo mode is 4 ohm series or 1 ohm parallel.

i was talking about 1 amp. yeah it's either 1/2 ohm or 2 ohms. I have my alpine type r's at 2ohms. but 2 amps, yeah you can drop ONE dual 2 ohm sub to 1ohm on ONE amp

I wanna hear that beat ..that box and subs look good

Since both the speakers are wired to 1ohm isnt the amp still gonna read 0.5 ohm since it comes to the smae connection point inside the amp. Tryna see how this works because im thinkin about getting that amp for my MOFO's?

Did they slam inverted??

Thanks for this video I've hook my subs up like this for years and my boys would always ask me y i hook them up like that and told me it was the wrong way but i did it anyway and they would have a 750rms amp and i had a 400rms and my system always sounded louder and better so thanks again i guess i had it right all along ✌🏼🔈🔉🔊🇵🇷

@Wetstriker thanks for pointing that out. didn't hear it in the video.

.5 ohm if running to a mono amp with dual speaker outputs, 1 ohm if using a 2 channel amp

im confused is it better to have a bigger number ohm or smaller number ohm

Good job... Bro.. 👌

Looks right to me. Nice box btw

@DaBandiiT its a 2 channel amp... or a mono with 2 sub outputs... lol

no both are 2 ohms when u run them in parralell they drop as 1 big unit to .5 = 1/2ohm if he woulda ran in series it wouldmove up as a unit to 1 4 ohm load he no wat he want ta do with it he just dont kno the terms

yeah. there's 2 outputs on the amp. but it still doesn't matter, it still comes out to 2 ohms if both of them go to the amp. And that does not make sense. you cant wire the AMP to 1 ohm, and the subs something else. Plus, it's IMPOSSIBLE to wire TWO dual 2ohm subs down to 1 ohm, it just won't work by the ohms law. If you DMM the amp, it will say 2 ohms.

@bucu2003 you cant wire a 1 dual 2 ohm sub to 1/2ohm though

so your saying that the power is only positive? i looked at all batteries...they all have positive and negative....so a AA battery has a power and a ground side?

Mapawah oh mah Mapawah !

I have a set of power acoustic mofo 12s there bad ass so far I'm still breaking them in

Here's the big question is he running a one channel amp or 2. IF he has 1 channel with 2 sets of outputs its still being dropped to a half ohm. only a 2 Channel would keep it at 1 ohm. by the way PA Bamf 5500 is 1 channel. which if which if wired way he showed would kill the amp.

If your running a single amp the load seen by your amp will be 0.5 ohms ..... Unless you have a 2 channel amp thats 1ohm stable per channel

Man this guy is trying to bend and twist the laws of physics . .

i meant the amp reads 1 ohm. not wire from the amp, and why would it be 2 ohms?? if anything id see it go to .5 ohms

Dude I have rewired my dual 10" sub woofer and just do it the easy way neg to pos and then the speaker wire going from the sub to the amp neg to neg and pos to pos its that easy. I will make a short video of it tomorrow.

Can you do the same for some 12cvr to a 3.0001.d amp

thanks 50cent

incorrect, i have these (1st gen bigger magnets) only in 12's, I use 2 amps to power each at a 1 ohm load. these are dual 2ohm voice coil, when wired to a mono block amp you're at a 1 ohm load per sub if you use two seperate amps. but yes if 1 amp is used you're dropping it down to a 1/2 ohm load not many amps are stable enough to support that long term will likely result in blowing your amp. i ran my memphis 16 st-1000D (500 dollar amp back in 2003 at 1/2 ohm load for a few yrs) was a phenom

sick box bro

my bad and you can only wire up to 4 ohms if the speaker offers dual 4 ohm

Did u buy ur subs and amp from ebay

what guage wire bro?

I just got those same subs, with a PA 3000w class D amp 1ohm stable. could i do what hes saying to run it to my amp?

i have the same speakers wired at one ohm speaker to speaker and my amp keeps cutting off i think imma have to get another bamf 5500 for the other 15..or am i doing soething wrong?

It's funny cause I have 4 12 mofo daul 2ohm AN I rewire the same way you doing it AN now my truck lid is about to come off but I'm running 4 mofo 12s on a hifonics bxx 4000 watt amp at 1ohm an it's insane now that I wired it like you doing now

i have Subwoofer w 2700+2 so i wont to know how many power amp i can use ?

Thanks dude ur good

uhh. im pretty sure you can only wire 2 dual 2 ohm subwoofers to 0.5ohm or 2 ohms.

You got a video of them 15s at work?

You don't hook it up to the power and the ground on the amp, it's the positive and negative speaker terminal on the amp😂😂😂😂😂 good shit tho👍👍

@DaBandiiT Don't forget 8 ohms also.

fuck them haters homie, do what you do.they just mad because they don't know how to do this hit.

the comments on here are fuckin HILARIOUS!!!!!!! LOL

actually it starts at the GROUND and returns through the POSITIVE >:) Just like lightning. STARTS at the ground and POSITIVELY charges the clouds for UFOs to recharge on. Duh... LMAO! jk couldnt resist hehe

is this working for 4 ohm sub ?

tha hood hookup

What are you talking about. Power to power and ground to ground? Okay, you might have a point here. 124x hopefully at 2 ohm, 1 sub!

it'd b a much better system if u had a .5 ohm stable amp.

@DaBandiiT and your totally wrong on that bub its dual 2 can only be wired to 1ohm or 4 ohms

put the ground to ground? power to power? really. tell me more about this.

i dont understand why people dont solder those wire ends

Dual 2 Ohm, Not 2 Dual Ohm, Just kinda Bugged Me A Bit...

ppl will appreciate this...

Nice.

If it's going to a class d amp that would be .5 when you hooked tgem 2 subs up to the amplifier like at

@blackcatmaster no the subs he is working with are DVC 2ohm

@custombobbs nope wrong it is a mono it does have 2 channels but its plus plus minus minus which equals one channel this guy has no idea what hes talking about he actually does have it wired to .5 ohm which is not good cause that amp is not stable at .5 ohm if he wants to wire it at 1 ohm he needs the 4 ohm dvc subs i had/have pretty much the same setup i know the deal. stringmem is right. TIP when u see a amp and says +-+- its 2 channel when u see ++-- its a mono block 1 channel

dude everything this guy has shown is correct, besides some of the terms he used. quit hatin on the brotha. im sure if u made a video u would fuck up too. each sub is wired in parallel for a 1 ohm load from each. he never stated what he had for an amplifier.

Is this guy wearing a grill, or is his teeth really that yellow?

THANKS!!

as much as i dont want to agree with this goof ball, but a dual 2 ohm sub can be wired down to 1 ohm or 4 ohms. Then he is using a 2 channel amp, not a mono amp, so he didnt wire the 2 subs together. They are each on their own channel at the amp :/ but... " 2 dual ohms" makes no damn sense lol... its a "dual, 2 ohm subwoofer"

and i just subbed to your pagel.

only way that work if u hav two one oh stable amps I got 4-12 L7s 2 ohm dual voice coil on one phoenix gold titanium anniversary addition nd they all at 1ohm

I've already said that I know you can wire 1 dual 2 ohm sub to one ohm! And wire both of them down to 1 ohm on a 2 channel. But you cannot wire them together down to 1 ohm. That's what I said in the first place.

you do know that it is positive and negative...not power and ground....right?

I was done when he said power and ground

Lol too many people watch youtube and think they are experts on things now a days.. but hey.. that's why I charge 80$ an hour to fix the do it yourselfers cars:)

lets hear yer system powered from the bamf.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 oh my goodness watching this was so miserable

still breaks to a half a ohm trust me learn how to series n parallel then try to be a tru soundologist

@SGlitches ive never seen a video of somebody wiring 2 dual 2 ohm subs to 1 ohm

overkill lmao

@MrSlinky2 yeah, but he never stated that.

Bro it's not the ground wire.. it's the negative..

nice box though on a serious note if he built it he has some skill, just dont knwo english, his english is worse then my spelling

That will still be .5 ohm
