    What would burn up first the woofer or the amp?? :idea:
    I should try that sometime when I have some spare equipment laying around.
    Pull those 1985 Alphasonik Amps out of your boat and give it a whirl!!!

    If only amps now were made like they were back then.

    I have two 10" 250w rms 4 ohm dual voice coil subs. Need opinions if I should run a mono amp wiring the subs in series, or run them on a two channel amp each sub to each channel. Is there any advantages in running them a certain way? More power? Better sounding? Also with each sub having a 100-250w rms what is the min. recommended wattage for each amp if I go eitherway? FYI i have not chosen what amp manu. to run yet.
    Forgive me if these are stupid questions, just want to make sure all goes well.
    Thanks in advanced.
    I run all mine bridged my one is a 1500 rms clarion and the other is a 4000 rms Pyle...........( . )( . )...............:idea:

    Most 2 channel amps are designed to work at 4 ohms mono. If you are hooking up a 2 channel amp up to a single sub it would have to be a single 4 ohm voice coil woofer or a dual 2 ohm voice coil sub. Do not wire the amp stereo to a dual voice coil woofer. Also do not wire a single coil on the woofer as it will burn up the sub.
    Thanks... I ended up buying a new JL system for my son's car. I gave the amp (audiobahn) and the sub (MBQuarts) to my neighbor's kid for his car.
