Posted September 21, 200816 yr i was wondering if i could power one rl-p 18 with an aq2200d. would i get the sub in d4 and wire it in parallel to get a 2 ohm load, (which is 1300watts ). or should i get d2 and wire it in series to get a 4 ohm load? (740 watts) the soundsplinter website says 500 to 1000watts.
September 21, 200816 yr That subwoofer doesn't need a whole lot of power to wang away. I'd go with the dual 2 ohm model.
September 21, 200816 yr I would do D2 wire coils parallel and turn all the levels like gain,boost, all the way down.
September 22, 200816 yr I would do D2 wire coils parallel and turn all the levels like gain,boost, all the way down.uhhhh NO.That would wire the sub to 1 ohm and send the full brunt of that amp to it. Even with the gain all the way down, it'll be far too much power for the RL-p.you'll want to wire in SERIES for a final 4 ohm load.
September 22, 200816 yr Author yea 2200watts going to it wouldnt be to great! ok d2 in series it is. thanks john
September 24, 200816 yr maybe, but it is defidently not safe nor recommended to run that thing anywhere near 2200 watts, id say d2 in series
September 24, 200816 yr If you don't already have the amp, get something else that doesn't have dubious build quality.
September 29, 200816 yr If you don't already have the amp, get something else that doesn't have dubious build quality.Would that be a general consensus? I thought they had a solid reputation??? Have you experienced it yourself?
