Coupling 2 MS2125 to get one amp out of it

Is that possible or not? If yes how to do it?

you mean strapping? i'm sure it could be done but would be very hard and need a good tech guy to do it right..

do you just nee dmore power? why not put an ms2250 in one of your franks?

yes it can be done....i know you need to invert the phase of one of them....

i would think such a device exists...but dont know who possibly makes one.

it probably is easier to just get another amp

What is the meaning of doing this?

Can't you just bridge two ms2125s, and you have 2x the power.

Or do you want the power of both amps into 1 mono, or something like that?

No, you can't bridge or strap two bridged amps. When you bridge each MS2125 to make it a single channel amplifier, you are already inverting one channel.

You can only strap true mono amplifiers. Even then, most of the "monoblock" amplifiers made for CA are actually stereo designs that are internally bridged.

It is very simple to strap two monoblocks. As mentioned, the signal to one amp is inverted. I can provide you a link to a DIY bridging adapter, but it will not work for what you are thinking.

My Problem is that i might consider to use just 3 of my cyclones to due a little issue with space in the car. When i wire those 3 parallel i´m at 2,6 Ohm´s! I know that i can drive the MS2125 at 2Ohms without having issues! But then i would have an unused 2125 section of my Sofas in the car! I don´t want that

As boring as it sounds, I think you should run two cyclones with an amp each. It should be louder and better sounding than three clones on one amp, and it is a heck of a lot easier to install. Besides, two clones on that power will still make your passengers shit their pants whenever the bass hits!

why not run 3 ms2125's on subs, the 4th on tweters and the 4 ms275's bridged for mids and midbass? think that's everything covered!
