Trying to get 2 ohms...
Ok, here's the setup: two JL 12W3 D4's and a JBL 1200.1.
Ideally I'd like to have this system running both speakers at 2 ohms, ie 600~ watts to each sub.
Hooking these subs up mono in series results in a 4 ohm load, and hooked up mono in parallel results in a 1 ohm load. Just having one sub hooked up in parallel results in a 2 ohm load. so....
If I were too hook up each speaker in parallel and then run it stereo, should I be able to run each speaker at 2 ohms with this amp, or does it not work like that? Sorry if this is a newbie question.
