Hey every one my name is Arun I¡¦m not new to this site but I don¡¦t post alot of messages but I have a question for all you bass heads.

I have one rf dvc 4+4 and a sony xm-2150gsx thats a 2 channel amp and i'm trying to get it to push this dvc to its best ability. I tried to hook it up Parallel where it threw out 2 ohms and only use one channel off the amp and but it goes on overload. Then I tried to put one coil to each channel and it doesn¡¦t do nothing well a little but my ear cant pick it up.

Can some one please tell me how i should hook it up?

The anp is like this :

760 Watts Max Power (into 2 ohms)
150 Watts x 2 into 4 Ohms, 20-20 kHz at 0.04% THD
380 Watts x 1 into 4 Ohms, 0.1% THD

considering this amp is not 2 ohm mono stable your option would be to wire your subs in series pos to neg pos to neg then bridge on the amp to give each side a 4 ohm load in mono

As Jeff said, this is your only option to connect one sub to that amp:

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
