    nice detailed video, you can never stop learning, be a sponge to knowledge when there is much to be learned from. car audio is one of those areas where there is so many avenues, so many variables. you can most certainly wire 4 dvc 4ohm subs to 1ohm. this video is great for beginners with no confusion, also not part of the video is half a dozen other options for wiring, all reaching the same desired ohm load, difference being power handling, impedance, channels of the amp...... car audio had so many avenues of knowledge, never stop learning

    wattage the amp needs to be. i tried looking
    online but some say it needs to match so

    it has to be 1.5/2× the amount of watts 🤷‍♂️?
    Also what ohm load it needs to be... i have

    for the 8" Sundowns... Any advice on what
    amp(watts) and what ohm load it should be?

      @tryandtakealaska3797 2 года назад +1

      stay under 1000 watt in a class d amp and you should see vary minimal dimming in light when the bass hits with out any upgrades to the elec system if you do class a/b only 200watt cause 400 to 500 watt will dam near make the light go out lol the pains we delt with in the old school days was real hehe

    @shannonbalgaard4494 Год назад

    If you mounted terminals on the box for each coil wouldn't that make it easier for experimenting with different setups so you can you don't have to pull the subs out in other words to change wiring configuration, from either series to parallel, I hate having to pull the subs to change it especially if you're just experimenting and testing the differences and bouncing back

    Hey bud, will you need to put some wire mesh covers over them to prevent the kids from accidentally kicking them getting in/out of the truck? Does your truck have the Bose system and how are you going to connect the speakers/Amp to that system? I've heard that you can't do it at all? I have a red 2021 High Country Tahoe with the Bose system and would sure like to add more speakers and Amp for some bass!

    You said something about not ever being able to get a dual voice coil to the same ohm load as they start and that's not entirely true. You can run each voice coil to their own channel on the amp to get the same ohm load. So if you had a 4 channel amp and 2 dual voice coil subs you could run each voice coil to it's own channel and get 2 ohms on each of the 4.

    Turning all 2ohms speakers into 1 ohms would not sound great. The higher the ohms the better the sounds so it would be better if you install a 4 channel amp and connect all the speakers individually the get the best of all speakers
