Connecting amp to subwoofer question

Post by rednike »

Hi All:

Just a stupid question to ask and hopefully someone can help to give me advice...

As I recently installed an old school cerwin vega 12D2 stroker sub and pushed by Ti 2500.1 and due to some reasons, I ask the audio shop to re-do a ported box for the sub, the question is they connect the amp to sub by bridged two channel on the amp and connect to the sub (which is dual coil) in single wire, can I actually not bridge the amp and using two individual wire to connect individual coil on the sub??

OMG I would not use this shop if they don't know the basics
first off this is a mono amp just wire the sub to the 4 ohm or 1ohm load as needed :shock: 8)

No, Actually I think they link the coils by wires as well...
