What would happen if I ran a pair of these unbridged on a 4 channel amp with 2ohm impedance?

These could barely handle the wattage from my cd player. Your amp is probably 2 ohm stable and is in 2 ohm when bridged 4 ohms when not. I have a 4 channel 2 ohm stable amp and that is how it is. I would not hook an amp up to these.

Yes they can be used with a 4 ohm amp, but the volume will be less than normal. You will need to crank them up to get a normal volume. Shouldn't be a problem unless you want to listen a very loud levels.

Yes you should if they are dual 4ohm jus run negative to positive cross. Then the open negative and positive to amp. Do this for both subs. Be aware these subs handle 400 watts rms so you will need 800 watts rms or at least 400 watts rms for solid bass

It may...by connecting them paralleled to the amp, and installing a passive filter on the output to the 12" sub. The problem with that wiring scenario and 4 ohm speakers is that you will force the amp to run at a lower ohm load than it is supposed to accept. I would not recommend this because even if it worked, it would overheat. Throw a separate bridged mono amp with a capacitor on the sub instead...hope that helps and good luck with it.

If your subs are 4 ohm, then yes you can wire them in parallel to make a 2 ohm load. You should get roughly 450 to 500 watts per sub. Keep the bass boost off and the gains turned down and your good to go.

I did some brief reading about how to match amps and speakers, and my understanding is that the amp's power rating should be less than that of the speakers--around half the peak rated wattage. But as well as power you have to make sure the impedance of the speakers matches the output impedance range of the amp. If you're running two 8 ohm speakers in parallel on each channel, that's actually 4 ohms, so check those numbers. We use this Grace BTAR122 in conjunction with two 80 watt Polk Atrium 4 speakers and it sounds fantastic.

This is a 4 ohm and 8 ohm load amp. Run in mono you should be able to link from input b into input a on the next amp I believe.

Depends on the crossover frequency applied to the speakers but generally the answer is that they would be damaged. I would turn my gain to about 3/4 on the amp and you should get very high quality sound (depending on the deck and type of music).

If you have a pair of these your options with this amp are 125w to each in stereo. Each sub is 4 ohms and the bridged x1 or (mono) operation for this amp is rated for 4 ohms x1 @ 450w for use with a sub. You have two subs both at 4 ohms so wiring the subs in parallel will create a 2 ohm load on the amp and it will quickly overheat. The manual states unfortunately that the bridged 2 ohm load cannot be used for a sub. I actually tried it and found it to be true with the amp heating up and going into protect.

Depends on how you wire them up. Perallel or in series. I have my single wired in Perallel which dropped it to 2 ohms and I am powering it with a Audiobahn A8000M that has a peak of 2200 watts and an RMS of 1100 watts. It sounds amazing. So if I were to power two subs I'd get a 2000 watt peak power 2 channel amp and bridge it at least.

Hello. At 4 ohms that amp provide 525 watts. That is plenty so I would just use both channels of your amp, on for each speaker. You would not want to bridge your amp with these speakers as you would then be providing 1550 watts at 4 ohms and would almost definitely blow the speakers. Also if you bridged your amp you would only have one channel. So either you would need two amps, or you would try to daisy chain these speakers and I don't believe that amp will work at 2 ohms.

I cannot answer that question. mine are wired directly to a four channel amp. all I can say is without an amp they will not put out as much. they will probably sound like your stock setup. get a separate amp for them. mine has the boss audio 4-channel 400 watt amp. cost me $40

This should work; Basically just wiring two speakers in parallel, such that the resistance from the amp's viewpoint is halved. Each speaker will receive half the wattage.

Yes it will work fine just wire them into the high end pass and turn the amp input level about a quarter of the way up as the output can be erratic when u first buy it kinda have to break it in so to speak

You can, but you might be sorely disappointed. This amp can deliver maybe 30rms when bridged (@4ohm)Depends on what sub. 30rms is fine for a computer speaker sub, but is pathetic for car audio.

That depends on the impedance and make up of your speakers. The amp has only one channel but also allows you to bridge your load to recieve max power..

Hi. I don't know for sure, but my understanding is that you cannot bridge this amp. Cheers
