Alpine MRD-M300 Car Audio Amplifier - Page 4 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues
I have 2' 2ohm 10" subs running a Alpine pdx1.1000 looking for best way to wire do I need another amp or wire as 4 ohm
I would think a 1000 watts would be enough for 2 10's.
You can hook up two dual voice coil subs a few different ways.
First thing I would check for is what ohmage your amp is rated for.
You don't want to push a lower ohmage than what your amp is rated to handle.
That is a good way to overheat & ultimately fry your amp.
After that, you can wire your subs accordingly.
If they are dual 2 ohm subwoofers, you can wire each of them as a 4 ohm load, 2 ohm load or even a 1 ohm load.
I would personally go by what the amp is ratted for.
Remember though, the lower you run the ohmage, the better base responce & harder the hit you will get.
No sound out of any speakers on Alpine model CDA-9855
Make sure even thought the wires are the same color that your car color code also matches the color code of the Head Unit if not stock radio then the color code would be in your cars manual book or find it online in the image section of the browser you are using or better yet just order your self the radio adapter for your cars model for that type of head unit your installing or troubleshooting in your case and make sure all wires and positive wires are hooked up properly because some devices will not work if all the wires are not wired correctly meaning left terminal to left and right terminal to right speaker and positive and negative wires installed correct as well.. Hope this helped..
