the amp is
200 X 2 at 4 Ohms Stereo
400 x 2 at 2 Ohms Stereo
800 x 1 at 4 Ohms Mono
Sub handles 300 RMS and since you only have one, you will have to run it at 3 ohms because the amp will not go to 12 ohms.All info is on the page I posted before. |

Its 3 ohms no matter weather bridged or not. Just so you know that amp is only stable at 4 ohms when bridged to 800 watts. The three ohm load is a parallel wiring of the DVCs. "and if i had another w6 would i be able to run both like that on the amp? Yes, but the ohms would then be a 1.5 ohm load if you mean to still run parallel. If you run the two subs in series than that will present a 6 ohm load. You will have to have three of these subs to get a 4 ohm load wired in series and a 1 ohm load wired in parallel. All this info came from the page I posted before. Take a look at it. Lots of pictures and easy to understand. Sorry, sick of typing. |

last question: the 300 rms of the dvc sub, is 300rms or 150rms in each voice coil or both voice coils? and is it safe to bridge the sub to that amp? |
