Amen! Thank you Sundown for this video. It is amazing how I get an amplifier in, repair it, send it back out just to get an email saying "It only lasted 10 seconds". I ask what's your connected load... you know how this story goes. I deal with this issue every single day. I will point people to this video!
Thanks pal, checked my subs, one is at 2.1ohms, the other is at 1.9 (the base resistance of the probes is 0.1 so well within tolerance. Checked the positive and negative input on the amp, 2.4ohms. Perfectly explained and understood, cheers.
That is awesome that you showed how sensitive the voice coils are most people don't understand that when you're checking then and they're talking around you that vibration from their voice or yours can also make it jump just enough to make your multimeter not read right
I remember a guy arguing with me on youtube in like 2007 - 2008, and he called me an idiot because I didn’t “bridge” my “monoblock” amp correctly in a testing video I had up (only had speaker wire connected to one set of terminals for my testing). I couldn’t help but laugh, as I repaired amplifiers and knew exactly what I was doing. I tried to explain that it was a single channel mono amp and the terminals were wired parallel internally for convenience, and it didn’t matter which set I used, and it was not a 2 channel so you can't bridge it, but I don’t think he could comprehend it was not 2 channels, and in his mind I was the idiot for not bridging it right; some people swear they know everything and you simply can’t educate them. I think I got this a few times over the years.
I wired my d2's to 1 ohm each and used all 4 outputs on my sfb, I figured it would see the 2 ohm load. Now I hear it's actually at .5? Thanks for saving me on that one. I knew it was one channel, glad I didn't rock it at full tilt yet.
Good explanation. I'm not an installer, but I've done a few systems for people and the amount of people who rig their stuff up, or use lamp cord, or run a power thru the door jamb is crazy I've seen nightmare wiring hit hard as hell and I've even told them.. your playing with fire
A quick looksie in the good old manual would tell you that. Manufacturers put those papers in there for a good reason. When in doubt do what the Manufacturer says they've spent alot of time and money to find the best way to use their products. Unless it's an alpine subwoofer then ignore anything they say
Maybe a video that might help would be how to wire multiple subs to one ohm... or running parallel and series... great job explaining for people that may not be sure or don't know!
It might be. For someone who has been used to bridging an amp externally..... might be making mistakes not understanding its internally....might help ...or confuse the idiot (friends) more...lol
@@UnofficialAudio please make a video how to hook up the temp meter to NightShades to read the temp using the temp meter that comes with the NightShades. Thanks
So since the amp is wired parallel internally. You could connect your dvc 2ohm subwoofer voice coils in series inside the boxes ( 2 voice coils on 1 sub tied to gather in series) run the + and - to the boxes terminal cups and take each speaker box cup and wire it to the 2 separate terminals on the amp that are hooked up in parallel internally. Makes a 2 ohm load correct? 2 ohm dvc subs VC hooked in series on each sub and then tied then hooked to the amplifier in separate connectors where they then are parallel??? Using both terminals on the amp but pulling just 2 ohms 🤷🏻♂️. In all the diagrams the hook on speaker to another and then pull from one terminal on the amp. But should be same to hook each sub to the amp by itself since the terminals are hooked in parallel inside the amp 🤷🏻♂️.
You deserve more than a like and comment and subscribe well explanation.i have watch alot of channels and gosh them dose explain like if I suppose to be a pro and know everything
I totally respect everything your saying, however I have a set-up that consists of 1 6k Sundown mono block amp, 2 v3 x12s (D2) wired to .5 ohm. I also have big 3 wiring, 370 mechman alt, and a limitless cyber 12k for over a year now.
It would be nice if you showed how to wire it using 2 speakers both being dual 4 ohm speakers, I think they would each need to be wired to 2ohm each right then when there hooked to to mono amp it would equal 1 ohm total
Scary world i had some1 tell me were i should set my lpf on my 80 prs for my 15 yr old full range amplifier im old school tho and love voltage and audio! Id like to know more about time alignment and how to correctly use a 80 prs head unit.Good job guys yall handle it good.
Smdh just like when I had to tell someone who’s kinda getting big now that gain matching isn’t just matching the gain nobs on the amps lol there are some special ppl in the world ! Great video!

I literally argued with someone a couple weeks ago that was trying to tell me that your in advanced one with project spl lol they didn’t believe me.... sent them your build playlist lol 😂
Excellent explanation, My question is if my amplifier is mono block and only has 1RCA input will it hurt it to run the right and left from my stereo into a single input to the amplifier
Thanks for the informative video Derek! If you happen to see my comment would you please let me know which model of the ExTech DMM you are using?? I'm going to buy myself a new meter. Btw I'm glad you said what you did about the craftsman meter, I had been looking at them but not now.
Great explanation, wish i had this video years ago when i first started, could we get some dyno videos of the sia series amps? Specifically the 1750 and 1250
I was curious on the specific terms and purpose of my bass knob for my smb. I have always been able to adjust the “boost” max to whatever I set my amp to or lower the gain.i would max it when I set my gain never to go over and clip. With my sundown knobs it seems to have a 2/3 no effect. Then instantly will seem like it just kicked on and will have a response. But when I turn back down it hits that mark and it just basically sounds like it cut off the gain. Could you help me with what I’m tuning or wiring wrong to not get a response signal to adjust my bass knob when j need to usually just need to slightly reduce the bass but it just drops off on me. Thanks i appreciate it, and sorry if it’s a stupid question.
2 questions. 1) is the 1200.1 sufficient to run a SA v2 10"? 2) i have (8) 6.5" component speakers that handle 100W RMS and (4) 8" tower component speakers that handle 150W RMS. What amp do you recommend for these?
Thank you for the video. On a monoblock amplifier with multiple channels, is it a correct assumption that each subwoofer is playing the exact same signal "performing identically" (in theory) to the other subs since there is only one channel? Are all bass frequency amplifiers "Mono" amps?
I have an even dumber question I guess. My headunit only has one subwoofer out. How do I hook he rcas? Do I use a y splitter or just connect one of the rcas?
I have a taramp 1200.1 and it only has one screw in for output (as in one positive and one negative) I keep coming out at .5 with 2 12s in a box please tell me what I'm doing wrong I got both side of the dual voice coil speakers wire together then speaker wire running straight to amp
What would everyone suggest I look at if my subwoofer starts humming as soon as I plug the rcas into the amplifier. Kicker comp vr 15” with Jensen 1200 watt mono amplifier? Thanks in advance. I can’t figure this out for the life of me
I have a loc wired connected to a bass processor by rca. I have 2 mono amps with only one set of rca each I want to connect the processor to. How do I do that with rca
There's always a story behind every "stupid" warning sign/label. Maybe printing on the amp telling the user that the outputs are bridged might save some RMA headache in the future?
how do I know if its 2 omh amp. I have 3 jl infinite baffle 2 omh 12's for my boat and need to know what amp iam gonna need to have to run all 3 at 2 omh.
I bought the sdx 1200.1 , what size speaker wire do you suggest? It’s about. 8’ run and is pushing a xxx12 from wetsounds. My boat already had 12 gauge ran to a free air sub. Also, I had a 1’ run on the amp and went with 4 gauge wire from the perko switch. Do I need to go bigger?
I have 2 nemesis audio amps 6k monoblock can they be strapped together even tho they don't have the audio outputs just 2 inputs and I was wondering if you could strapped them together please help!!!!
Maybe label the outputs on the amp as channel 1 like you do with the ones with multiple outputs. People will still get it wrong but at least it’s there lol
People constantly ask me "you can't bridge this monoblock". I will show them this video next time. I wired my d2 subs down and the amp "bridged itself" 😂
@@NVMDSTEvil Yes I completely understand. I was saying what I see people say all the time. Just last night I was arguing with a guy, said he needed a 4 channel cuz he had 2 subs. I gave up after sending him wiring diagrams and he didn't believe me.
Hey I need your help, I've been trying to get my amp fixed and filled out the form to send it to you guys but I never received a email from you guys and now the lady that answers the phones won't answer or call back for some reason PLEASE HELP...
I can't believe ppl actually think there's 2 channels 🤦♂️I hope manufacturers don't start only putting 1 set to squash confusion cuz I like the 2 outputs. Insane someone can understand ohms law but not understand they're not 2 channels 🤷♂️
Just last week... Had the same discussion.. after 5min I gave up explaining to the guy. 🤦🏻♂️ Rather hear BASS than BS 😂 DLS used to make their amps pretty asshole-proof. On my 12 year old CAD15 it says at the (double) speakerterminal: MIN. 2 OHM EACH!! Problem solved 👍🏻
I need your reply I’ve waited days plesse respond nothing yet I have two duel 2 e 15 subs I have the 1000 d amp wired to 1ohm would be louder to add a second amp To each sub because I’m pretty sure one amp doing two subs is given less power
So a monoblock amplifier actually isn't meant to play a single speaker because you'll be playing below the rated arms so you've got to go do some funky wiring shit to get a single speaker to play on a monoblock amp which is what it sounds like it's intended for which is why this is a bunch of bull because it's like gatekeepers trying to keep people from figuring this shit out and doing it themselves. Y'all either give overly complicated and drawn out lectures on this or y'all give the most basic beginner answers like make sure all of your wires are connected
My SIA 3k started smoking when I plugged in my sfb bass knob to it and now it pops and that's all sundown wouldn't replace it I thought a company such as this would make it right guess not iv spent 15000 plus in my time of audio with y'all not anymore I guess unless it's made right.....
@Rolling Thunder 420 are the bass remotes for SIA and SFB amps different? I would compare the two myself and see but I only have a SFB5000 amp. I do not have a SIA amp to where I can compare or see if the plugs are in any way different, or to check and see if either remote has a different amount of wires. You've had both series amps, therefore I'm assuming you are able to do a detailed evaluation of each remote to see whether the remotes, wires or plug-ins are in form, fashion or way different from one another...
@@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 yes iv had both but my sia I purchased didn't come with a bass knob and I ASSumed it was the same and that's where I made a mistake but it was something that I believe should or could have been fixed for a repeat customer that's spent a small fortune with sundown iv put systems in my truck my wife's car my sister's and I even put a nice system in my parents RV that was the most expensive and I got no help from sundown I really feel like I lost a friend and still can't even get a response hell I'd take a used scratch and dent amp anything from them to show the least bit of loyalty to the customer as I was loyal to them.
Because yeah ohm's law and calculating all that stuff with one voice call or two voice calls or is it rated for 4 ohms or two ohms or are you using an equalizer or a crossover or this or that like there's a million factors to every factor and from what I've learned so far trying to figure this out The main messages go spend more money You need to buy more stuff You don't have good enough equipment You have to go get more shit. Like dude I'm just trying to hook up 112 to my Ford fusion and I can't put an aftermarket radio in there because it's all tied into all the crap and I'm not trying to ruin my car so I use the line out converter which I know works and now I got to go take my car back apart to pull all this shit back out of it and waste more time right this is just a big money pit
What do you mean it's unbelievable how many people don't understand this this shit's super deep and complicated and irritating I just wanted some bass in my vehicle and now I've spent a bunch of money and wasted a bunch of time and I know my stuff works cuz I tested it in my shed but it turns on but plays no sound in my vehicle and I don't have time to go take a freaking class and sound engineering and go buy a bunch of electronic diagnostic tools just to set up a sound system man like there's so many different theories and laws you have to learn just to set up a basic system this is some freaking bullshit man like so if you're not already an expert at it don't even bother trying is pretty much what you're saying

Excellent explanation, My question is if my amplifier is mono block and only has 1RCA input will it hurt it to run the right and left from my stereo into a single input to the amplifier
If it's an sfb/sia amplifier then the output rca doubles as an input as well. This is covered in the owner's manual.
If you mean by putting left & right RCA into a Y adapter, then Yes it will hurt, only need one RCA to go into the amp
That is my favorite amplifier mono one channel amplifier..

C
My amp wiring kit says for 2 Chanel the amp is a class d both 1200 watt max
i learned this in middle school
so does 2 8 ohm loads to a mono dual output amp give you 4 ohms?
When are you doing another build?

So can you still run 2 subs on a mono amp?
Can i wire a sub and speakers on the mono?

So a monoblock amplifier actually isn't meant to play a single speaker because you'll be playing below the rated arms so you've got to go do some funky wiring shit to get a single speaker to play on a monoblock amp which is what it sounds like it's intended for which is why this is a bunch of bull because it's like gatekeepers trying to keep people from figuring this shit out and doing it themselves. Y'all either give overly complicated and drawn out lectures on this or y'all give the most basic beginner answers like make sure all of your wires are connected
Do a video how wire a 1ohm speakers v1 to a 1 ohm in a amp I know but so everyone knows
I got an email from you jacob saying that your sending me a package any idea what that's all about there's a tracking number and everything
It’s so sad videos like these have to be put out
Lol they think nomatter how they wire it it's always 1 ohm 😂 that is sad.
My SIA 3k started smoking when I plugged in my sfb bass knob to it and now it pops and that's all sundown wouldn't replace it I thought a company such as this would make it right guess not iv spent 15000 plus in my time of audio with y'all not anymore I guess unless it's made right.....
@Rolling Thunder 420 are the bass remotes for SIA and SFB amps different? I would compare the two myself and see but I only have a SFB5000 amp. I do not have a SIA amp to where I can compare or see if the plugs are in any way different, or to check and see if either remote has a different amount of wires. You've had both series amps, therefore I'm assuming you are able to do a detailed evaluation of each remote to see whether the remotes, wires or plug-ins are in form, fashion or way different from one another...
@@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 yes iv had both but my sia I purchased didn't come with a bass knob and I ASSumed it was the same and that's where I made a mistake but it was something that I believe should or could have been fixed for a repeat customer that's spent a small fortune with sundown iv put systems in my truck my wife's car my sister's and I even put a nice system in my parents RV that was the most expensive and I got no help from sundown I really feel like I lost a friend and still can't even get a response hell I'd take a used scratch and dent amp anything from them to show the least bit of loyalty to the customer as I was loyal to them.
@@RollingThunder85 you messed it up. They don’t owe you anything. You made a mistake and learned a lesson
@Rolling Thunder 420 you can hit like on a comment but you cannot answer a question? 🤔🤯
@@itdoesntmatterwhatyourname6128 yes I own both a sia and sfb my sia did not come with a knob
Ooooooshiiit haha I'm wired at .5 ohm shiiiit 😂😂😂😂👍🤙⚡🥂😃🎶🎵I'ma have to re wire my subs haha oh boy thank you guys for the help 😃👍
Because yeah ohm's law and calculating all that stuff with one voice call or two voice calls or is it rated for 4 ohms or two ohms or are you using an equalizer or a crossover or this or that like there's a million factors to every factor and from what I've learned so far trying to figure this out The main messages go spend more money You need to buy more stuff You don't have good enough equipment You have to go get more shit. Like dude I'm just trying to hook up 112 to my Ford fusion and I can't put an aftermarket radio in there because it's all tied into all the crap and I'm not trying to ruin my car so I use the line out converter which I know works and now I got to go take my car back apart to pull all this shit back out of it and waste more time right this is just a big money pit
What do you mean it's unbelievable how many people don't understand this this shit's super deep and complicated and irritating I just wanted some bass in my vehicle and now I've spent a bunch of money and wasted a bunch of time and I know my stuff works cuz I tested it in my shed but it turns on but plays no sound in my vehicle and I don't have time to go take a freaking class and sound engineering and go buy a bunch of electronic diagnostic tools just to set up a sound system man like there's so many different theories and laws you have to learn just to set up a basic system this is some freaking bullshit man like so if you're not already an expert at it don't even bother trying is pretty much what you're saying
😂🤣
