Ohm Question?

Post by AVICJR »

I have a Ti Elite sub, it is wired w/ one wire to each VC because I was going to run two amps to power it.

If I connect the wires to the two terminals of a Xenon X1200.1, what would be the final load? Also, is there any problem using the two terminals (R and L) as opposed to the one (bridged), generally used? I know it's a monoblock, I just labeled it so for clarification.

I would wire it parallel, but it will be extremely hard to get to the sub in it's current location to change it out, but if I have to I would rather do it now.

I think the x1200.1 is internally paralleled. Which means that if you wire up that sub (D4) that way, it would present a 2 ohm load.

Thanks Vin, so if the sub is Dual 3 Ohm VC then it would essentially just drop it to half that or 1.5 Ohms?

Is it ok to use both terminals? 1 per VC.

If it is in fact ran paralleled internally, then you can run one pr. of terminals per vc

I'm not 100% on the internal parallel configuration, but if its like Ti monoblocks its its the same. :)
