i only had 299 store credit i just added the 100 and bought the alpine mrp 850 it produces 500 w rms x1 at 4 ohms and my 12' subs are 300rms a woofer and wired at 4 ohms. so apposed to my last amp at 456 rms this one should run ok i assume. |

run them parallel, and the amp will see 2 ohms
that will give you 400w+ per sub -- be conservative with the gain.

edit - forget it -- you have dvc 4's, not svc's. That diagram won't work for you |

i just posted a new topic on it as i got the email. the calculator rated my amp at 44.7 volts so i assume 42 or 40 should give me lead way so i don't hurt them? |
