i dont no the model #, i dont even have the amp, and i cant ask for it because my buddy works up north, and i see him like once in 2 months

 

MITEK CANADA that setup wouldn't be 1 ohm the type E's are 4 ohm subs so if hooked up in parallel it would only be 2 ohms bridged. I don't know the specs of the amp so not sure if it can handle 2 ohm load but maybe

 

ok now you lost me, how does a 2 ohm load change to a 1 ohm load bye bridging the amp [img]graemlins/dunno.gif[/img] , sorry for my dumbness

 

You are correct sir!

 

When 2 4 ohm woofers are wired in parallel then you are correct to say the impedance is 2ohm.

However what I and Dukk are saying is that when you bridge a 2 channel to those woofers, each channel of the amp is presented half that load.

Therefore 1 ohm.

Hope that helps.

Remember, not many 2 channel amps are capable of running loads lower than 2 ohm stereo. So go get 8ohm drivers or choose a different amp. [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Each channel of a stereo amp "sees" 1/2 the total load when it's bridged.

So a 4 ohm woofer bridged, will pull the same current as two 2ohm woofers wired in stereo.

Hopefully you have a mono amp, that's good for 2 ohms, or that "600 watt amp" will only be good for 150 per sub.

Anyways it's not going to matter a whole lot......you have Type E's (E stands for Ewwwww!).
