mrray13 30 Posted July 13, 2005 yes, that is how u bridge an amp...unless it's already a mono block. u need to get us the model number of ur amp as i still don't think it's a two channel amp. i have yet to see a two channel amp that is 2 ohm mono stable. at least rated.wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee I can name like 5.*cough* MA Audio A/B class HK amps* cough*ok.....lol...u get the cuz u knew that and i didn't...lolwheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrray13 30 Posted July 13, 2005 u see the part where it reads "2 ohm stereo stable, 4ohm MONO"by running it 2 ohm mono, u could have hurt ur amp and hence teh recurring power issues....wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee well im not exactly an audio veteran. im not even sure if it was 2 ohm mono. tho i did fry 1 amp already on this rl-p. im more than sure the one i have now is installed and wired correctly. i know its my car electrical system. i can check by testing my blinkers. when they blink in long intervals, the battery isnt charging. turn off the bass for about 5 mins, and theyu begin to blink at normal speed once again. Maybe its time to up the big 3.hey..sorry if i sounded harsh, i wasn't trying to be...but in any case, when u first had the sub wired, u had both positives together and ran to the amp and then the smae for the negatives, correct? if so, u had a 2 ohm load going to ur amp in bridged mode, which wasn't a good thing.now u should a positive from one vc and a negative from the other wired together and teh remaining running to the amp, right? if so, u are now showing the amp a 8 ohm mono load. (if u still have the amp bridged)u could have very well burnt something up inside the amp running at 2 ohm, even if it never showed any other signs of it...and that could be what's still causing the power issue...wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MrSwiss 0 Posted July 13, 2005 i had the positives and negatives of each coil wired to eachother, and from their ran into the amp. postive of left channel, negative or right channel."now u should a positive from one vc and a negative from the other wired together and teh remaining running to the amp, right? if so, u are now showing the amp a 8 ohm mono load. (if u still have the amp bridged)"thats correct. funny, my car died today at work lol =( 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
