before i buy the JBL 600.1 amp from Ikesound i want to make sure that this will work. i have 2 Rockford Fosgate 10 inch punches. they are 8 ohms a piece. RMS is 150 Peak is 400.

the amp is rated at
Output 4 Ohms: 300W x 1
Output 2 Ohms: 600W x 1

if i wired my subs in parallel that would give me 600W right?

thanks alot for any help, this is kind of complicated to me so any help is appriciated.

 

ohya, i dont want to run it at 4 ohms, at 2... if its possible how would i wire 2 8 ohm subs to get them down to 2 ohms?

 

you cant...sorry

 

If your going to run the impedence down to 2 ohms, make sure you have good cooling on your amp.
If you wire your (2) 8 ohm loads in parallel, total resistence will only be 4 ohms.
You need to have a total of (4) 8 Ohm speakers in parallel, for a 2 Ohm load.

 

Look at it this way...you want 2 ohms...that gives you an excuse to go buy 2 more subs! ...hey, you goin to the Disturbed/chevelle/Taproot concert at the colesium? Its gonna be AWESOME! so is the 50 Cent/busta/clipse conecert a week and a day before Disturbed...im goin to both..CANT WAIT!

 

ummmmmm no! thers to much other stuff that i could use the money for. like an amp...

 

Hahaha, ya, I guess your right, its still gonna be awesome. I can wait a lil bit longer for an amp so I can go to the concerts. I should be getting half the money ($400) tomorrow (Thursday) so I can get the JBL 1200.1 and the second sub, and then when I get the other half I will get an alpine CD Player and a JBL 80.4

 

Call me crazy, but your subs are rated for 150 watts rms, and at 4 ohms the 600.1 will put out 300 watts. So if you ran the two speakers in parallel, that would put you at 4 ohms, and give you 300 watts, which is just what you need. So why do you want to run at 2 ohms?
