quad 2 ohm voice coil sub wired to 2 ohms for a mono block amp?
Hello, i currently have my 2 audiobahn immortal 12's parallel / series / paralleled to my 1 ohm stable ma audio hc2502, but it is overheating and blowing fuses.. running these at 1 ohm... so i am going to buy the 4000w class d digital hk4000d , rated 4000 w rms @ 2 ohm.... how can i wire my subs to 2 ohm on a mono block amp? thanks
the hc 2502 is high current and at 14.4 volts only puts out about 1500 watts, these subs handle 2000 each.... rms.... and the amp is overheating at 1/4 gain 3/4 bass boost... at 14.4 volts.. i need a bigger amp... can anyone answer my question?
yes , i know that is how to wire it at 1 ohm.... i want to wire both quad 2 ohm subs to 2 ohms since the new amp is only 2 ohm stable... how would i do this ? thank you for the help so far, but i still dont think my main question is answered
how to wire 2 subs - both quad 2 ohm voice coils (4 - 2 ohm voice coils each) into 2 ohm impedance, to run at 2 ohms with a 2 ohm monoblock amp..
I think what most people here fail to see is that these Immortal's are NOT DVC's (Dual Voice Coils), they are QVC's (Quad Voice Coils) (That's 4, not 2) which are rated at 2 ohms each.
As Nick mentioned, you can wire ONE of these to either 0.5, 0.8, 1.5, 2.0, or 8.0 ohms. Since you have two of these bad boys, they can be wired at 0.25 - 16 ohms with multiple variances in between.
The problem here is that you want to wire them both at 2 ohms on a mono amp. The closest ratios I can configure with these subs is 1.6 or 3.0. You won't be able to get an exact 2 ohm load with what you have.
Your 1 ohm mono stable MA Audio amp should be able to handle these two wired up as you mentioned at 1 ohm mono if you have them done so correctly. Since it is not, I have to question the stability of the amp or if it is wired correctly.
You are looking at the MA Audio HK4000D which I'm sorry to say will put you in a situation which is no better. With it only being able to handle down to a 2 ohm load, you will not be able to reach the full potential with these speakers. However, IF you were to purchase two of these 4000D's and wire each one to a sub by itself at 2 ohm, you would be getting somewhere.
Unfortunately, this is the only way I can see you getting the most out of these speakers. As I mentioned earlier, you CAN wire them both together to achieve a 3.0 ohm load mono to the amp, but this IS somewhat complicated and still won't get the full potential of the amp. But with these two subs, you have to look at other alternatives. The 2.0 ohm configuration you wish to acheive, I'm sorry to say, just is not posible with your equipment. Hope this is has been of some help. T.G.P.
