best way to wire sub to amp???
i was wondering what would be the best way to wire my sub to get the most out of it.
the sub is 2 ohm DVC, 1000W RMS 2000W peak
the amp puts out
4 Ohm Power (RMS): 600W X 1
2 Ohm Power (RMS): 1150W x 1
1 Ohm Power (RMS): 2200W X 1
if i wired it in parallel like this
would that be too much power going to the sub?

if i wired it in parallel like this
1 DVC driver with Voice Coils in Parallel
Connecting the two voice coils of the driver in parallel (+ to +, - to -) will result in the following impedances:
Dual-6 Ohm Subwoofer: 3 Ohms
Dual-4 Ohm Subwoofer: 2 Ohms
Dual-2 Ohm Subwoofer: 1 Ohms
Dual-1.5 Ohm Subwoofer: 0.75 Ohm

I would not recommend wiring that sub in parallel unless you are very experienced. You can get away with that much headroom, but you need to adjust your gains and other settings accordingly. You will also want to have a proper box.
