What ohm should i wire my subwoofers to my amp!?
Hey, i have 2 MA Audio HK120XC Dual 4 ohm voice coal subwoofers, and a Kenwood KAC-9104D
1800W Max, Class D Monoblock Amplifier, plus a scosche 1400 wat max 700 watt rms amp wiring kit, and a MONSTER 12 gauge subwoofer speaker cable up to 1600 watt power handling. what ohm should i wire my subs to my amp to. i want to get the best sound! should i wire my subs at 1 ohm to my amp, cause it is 1ohm stable at 900 watt, or should i do something else. Are my wires big enough to do all of this? i just need to know cause i build my subwoofer enclosure and i need to know how i should wire the subs to the box to the amp!
How you load an amp determines the amount of power out.
There is a trade off though, the lower the impedance (ohms) the more power is pushed as well as higher distortion and more heat is generated. The excessive heat will shorten the life of the amp.
For best overall performance, it's far better to get a higher powered amp and load it with 4 ohms than a lower powered amp and force it to push more power with a lower impedance (2 or less ohms) load.
