to much power?
hi, i have a clarion SWR1283 DVC sub wich can take 300wrms but i was looking at the pioneer monoblock amp wich is 360wrms at 2 ohm, will i have any problems running the amp at 2 ohm and will this be to much power for the sub, otherwise is there any way i can run the sub at 4ohm
-
most amp have adjustable power
which meant that you can adjust the power to 3/4 power so that it doesnt provide the full power to the sub as an example
and most sub these days have power cutter, which meant that it can cut out to the max power that it can take
correct me it im wrong
-
thanks for that, it is in a small sealed box and i heard that if u put fluff stuff in there it makes the sub think its in a bigger box, is this true
-
the fluff stuff is mainly to help with the pressure inside the box
but im not sure about it thinking its bigger (might or might not)

nope

wat impedence is the SWR1283?? 4ohm+4ohm, 2ohm+2ohm, other?? also, uve only got ONE swr1283 sub rite??
as said, its not too much power - if anything its betta for betta control & headroom. just set the gains right n ull have no problems
-
ok thanks, it is dual 4ohm, so i should wire the voice coils in series or parralel to get a 2ohm load and it will be ok?

No problems what so ever. Like the guys mentioned above you must set the gains to match the headunit and subwoofer anyway. If your amplifier is more powerful than the sub you'll find your gains are just a little lower set.

If it is dual 4 then you need to wire it like this:

It's actually there to combat standing wave issues within the upper harmonics (although most subwoofers are crossed low enough to not suffer from standing wave issues)...
