    I have 2 sony xplod 10 inch 1200w SVC(330w RMS, 4ohms) subs in a sealed boxed with a sony xplod 1000w 2 ch amp. Specs on the amp Model Number: Xm-1652z 165w rms x 2 @ 4 ohms 200w rms x 2 @ 2 ohms 400w rms x 1 @ 4 ohms OK so i have the subs hooked up to the terminals on the box normally (+ to +, - to -) but i bridged it to the amp. Now my question is since i put both the postive wires from each sub directly into the bridge (BTL +) postive on the amp and the same with the negatives, would that be series or parallel? And would it be 2 ohms or 8 ohms, I know it should be 8 ohms on a 2 channel amp thats not 2 ohm stable bridgeable with 2 4 ohm subs and if it is 2 ohms h…

  4. Hi everyone, I'm Jared from Louisiana. I drive a 2005 chevy colorado. This seems to be one of the most informative audio forums that I have come across. I do all my own mods, and compete in local car shows and bass comps. Some of my mods are in my sig, I will put up more pics later.

    Hey everyone, This i my first time making an account in any forum so my bad if anything isn't formatted correctly. My name is Robert but I go by Rich, I live in Central Florida. I've been into car audio for about 5 years now so I'm still pretty new. I've had two different sound setups, one was a Sundown x-12 on a Crescendo 1500.1 in a Ford Ranger the other was 4 sa-10s crammed into the ass end of a Grand Marquis on a Soundqubed 2200. Right now I'm driving a bone stock Camry and I'm still undecided on what kind of sound upgrades I'm going to do to it. I've lurked on a bunch of different car audio forums for years but figured I'd go ahead and make a…

    I must say, i have been to a few forums in that past week and this is by far my fav. Some how i ended up at Caraudio.com forum, well lets just say that forum is nothing but a bunch of flameing KIDS. Anyway i have been out of car audio for about 10 years and im trying to figure out what equipment is still hitting hard and whats new lol. Ok Im putting a system in a 07 Nissan Versa (small 4 door Hatch) and need some help. Im looking for a nice SQ system that can get a little loud also, I do not plan on any SPL competition. I need some recommendations on the list below that are undecided. Also any input on the equipment I already own. Are the Polks any good, Lanzars any goo…

    Well I've been lurking around here for a looong time, reading everything, doing searches, bugging some people through PM. Decided it was time I introduced myself. I'm in Round Rock, TX (Austin area). I'm interested in both home and car audio and would be considered a newbie for both- but hopefully not for long. I am definitely interested in SQ, with the goal of becoming an actual audiophile Oh yeah, I was referred over here from another user I met at another forum- thanks ///M5!
