100.4 output?

[Lucky 76 5]

i was just wondering what the typical output on a 100.4 will do at 2 ohm. i have 2 sets of re xxx comps and i wanted to know if this amp will supply enough power to them

[sundownz 197]

Running active ?

Running active ?

no i was running passive ... y does it matter as far as output goes?

[Lucky 76 5]

should i be running active with those speakers? if so will the 50.4 work for my tweeters and the 100.4 work for my mids?

[sundownz 197]

You cannot bridge the 100.4 at 2 ohms. I was wondering why you would run just two channels of the amp ?

Or are you also running rear speakers ?

[Lucky 76 5]

well at first i intended on running pasive at 2 ohm non bridged ... so each output on the amp would go to its own crossover... the comps are 2 ohm not 4 ... i have 2 sets of comps so 4 mids 4 tweeters ...would going active be a better idea instead of running passive to those components?

the output states 160x4 at 2 ohm ... wat will it actually put out?

[sundownz 197]

Okay, got it now Two sets.

You can assume 10-15% more than rated power.

would what i said before work if i wanted to go active? if i wanted to run my mids off the 100.4 and my tweets off the 50.4? or will there be a xover issue?

The 50.4 isn't flexible enough to run tweeters on all four channels.

The 100.4 could do so as it has the x10 multiplier on HPF and LPF on both sets.

hey lucky where in ct are you ?

i am in enfield.

if you realy want you could swing by and try one of my 100.4's

i'm sure you would be impressed enough to get your own.

also when you get all setup i have all meters and oscope if you need.

anything to help other sundown owners get the most out of there equipment without causing dmg .

by the way i ran 2 channels of a 100.4 at 2ohm for awhile and it was no problem, it was still loafing.

i also run one bridged to 2 channel at 4 ohm and it loves it . {midbass}

for crossover flexibility the 100.4 is where it's at.

i don't need all the power of my 2x 100.4d's but they give me the flexibility to do any setup i need.

nope no rta or spectrum analizers,{ thinking about it}

but i do have fluke dmm and clamp meters and an awsome oscope.

enough to set your desired power level without clipping,or figure out your max power without clipping either way.

also you would get to hear what it sounds like when it starts to clip while watching it on the oscope.

could also tell you exactly how many amps your system draws.

or how many amps your alt is pushing at the time.

could also messure your impedance rise at a given freq if you plan to compete

i run a 3way front stage + sub active

and it is true flexibility, and also you can get so much more from each driver.

cool that you already got your 100.4 your going to love it i bet.

i would love to hear your icons some time.

as you must know by now there isn't many around here that run this type of equipment to compare to.

this is actualy part of a pm between 76 and myself just to clear up a few details.

but this offer is good to anyone around here.

When you say the 50.4 isn't flexible enough, are you speaking with the assumption that he'll use the crossovers in the amp?

I planned on running 4 tweeters off this amp using an 880prs to set crossover points, but now I'm trippin out here.

you would have to use the hpf of the h/u ... the 50.4 will not run 4 tweeters crossed over at the amp only 2

Yes, assuming he is using amp crossovers only. If he has external crossovers he is good.

Sweet, thanks for the replies.
