First, you need to know whether you have the 2 ohm DVC subs or 4 ohm DVC subs. Second, you need to know the minimum impedance the amp can handle (most are 2 ohm, some are less). Putting two voice coils in parallel will cut the total impedance in half (e.g. 2x 4 ohm voice coils in parallel = 2 ohms total). Putting subs in parallel will also cut the impedance in half. At one end of the spectrum, you could put the 2 ohms DVCs in parallel, then parallel the two subs, and bridge the 2 channels of the amp. That would put 0.5 ohms impedance on the 1 bridge amp channel. If the amp can do 0.5 ohms x 1ch, do it. Otherwise, you may have to run the subs on separate channels.

Well the L7 15'' solo-baric subs are rated at 1000 watts RMS, so that would be 3000 watts of RMS amplifier power you would need to supply to adequately power all of them. I also suggest that an amp capable of producing more power than what is needed is usually better in order to prevent the amplifier from running at maximum capacity for long periods. In short your amplifier will power those subs, however you will only be able to supply 1500 RMS watts to the three subs so you will only be pushing the subs to 50% of their rated capacity while using 100% of amp capacity which will make your amp run "hot" and your subs run "weak", but if you're in a pinch it will work. Your best bet in this situation is to wire the setup so that the subs and amp are operating at minimum ohm stable impendence (usually 2 ohm). Seeing that you have 3 subs begging for 3,000 watts of power and you are only going to give it half of what it wants, I would suggest upgrading the amp or at least buying another one so that you can bridge the wattage and redistribute to all three subs with the correct impendence.

Check speaker wires and ground

It will but not very well

The black wire is the neg. Hun

there are two different power supplies at work here that are acting against each other when you remove a fuse one power supply is cut and the other works fine in other words the system is not hooked up perfectly and one part does not need to be connected at all get advice from a radio repair shop

sounds like you need to get a 2nd amp for the woofer, then bridge the two amps but be sure to adjust the output mode to lpf for your woofer and hpf for the 6.5s. hope this helps.

bad amp. the blinking is an indication reading out a error code.

yes. i know where you can get them but this information i keep to myself. contact me at [email protected] and will get you some new cones (cover only parts need to be reused)

yes. google, impedance calculator and it will help you out on how to wire it

Ok, so you have a single 2 ohm speaker and a 4 ohm speaker with dual voice coils? The JBL Is a 2 Ohm load I believe.I ran through the maths...Series parallel with the 4 Ohms in series in parallel with the 2 Ohm gives you 1.6 Ohms2 x 4 ohms in parallel with a 2 ohm in series gives you 4 Ohms which is no good.All three in series give you 10 ohms which is no good.All three parallel gives 1 ohm.So with this set up you cannot create a perfect match. So you will always run the risk of bad audio or the amp blowing at high output.
