Question quick sub wiring question...?

my friend has a sony 2 channel amp...he has 2 4 ohm subs......ot says the amp can give it out 250 watts at 2 ohms.....so i was wondering can we run the subs in a parallel and hook the positve to the bridge on the one side and the negative on the other side....does that gives us 2 ohms or one ohm?

yup, if u take 2 4ohm subs and wire it parallel, u will get 2 ohm. so take the negative from both subs, connect them, then connect that to the negative on the amp. then take both positives, connect them, then connect that to the positive.

well is the rating 250 watts at 2 ohm bridged or is it per channel? if it's bridged then it basically turns into a mono amp.

hey bobaab,

That link to the Midwest Lancer club never works. I am moving to Chicago this summer and would like to check it out.
