well some of you may know, i have a pair of 10" Planet Audio Vortex... i have a Rockford Fosgate 3001, (150@4ohms, 300@2ohms), well i switched a friend amps for a bit just for the heck of it.. so now i have a Scosche(blah) amp, not sure on the specs.. anyway i was wondering how you would wire these subs(i have them wired already.. they sound fine i guess, but just incase)




and on the other side, theres 4 more of them posts.. no red dots, no nothin... any help would be really appreciated...

do you have a multimeter and a 9 volt battery? if so test the ohms with the multimeter and the polarity with the battery.

failing that, send them to me and I'll umm, figure it out for ya!

heheh

pshhhhhhh Kiki you couldnt handle these bad ass subs.. ... eh no dmm here.. ill just leave it how it is til i have a bit of time on my hands to mess with stuff... im not too worried about these subs..

ok well i made a picture of how i have em wired now.. im pretty sure they are wired in parallel... i have em bridged... not sure what they are gettin... the amp does like... 210 at 4ohms and 400 somethin at 2ohms i think... the Scosche amp is SA550 (cant find much, wasnt lookin to hard though)... anyway here is the pic.. maybe you guys can help me figure out what i have it wired too and how to wire if it is wrong or something.

well depending on whether your subs have 4 or 8 ohm voice coils or maybe even 2 ohm..you have series wired each subs voice coils and paralleled the two subs together so you have either created 4, 8 or 16 ohm speakers with the series wiring and then paralleled them together to create either2,4 or 8 ohm setup to the amplifier.
