new speakers and amp

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Del, I assume you have 2 10" subs. Don't wire them parallel if you're bridging the amp (amp will overheat) . If you wire them in series (with the amp bridged) you're cutting your power in half (in theory).

2 8 ohm subs or 2 2 ohm subs would have been a perfect match.

Should be a nice clean starter system. It will be enough to make your ears tickle a bit in a truck. I would deffinatly go with a sealed box though. Even though you lose a bit of sound with something like that the quality of the sound you get is so worth it. Its in a truck so its going to be pretty loud no matter what you do. That amp will power them fine. I am assuming your not looking for like earth shattering bass? I think you are going to be really happy with what you have.

hit me up on IM tomorrow. There is much more to an enclosure than throwing a speaker in a wooden or fiberglass box. When you bridge the amp you're combining the 2 channels into 1. Unfortunately, your sub(S) and amp aren't a good match for maximum power. Clipping will kill a speaker just as quickly as over-powering a sub, so you need to be careful. I'll help you out if you want to send me a message sometime.
