im more familiar with dvc wiring on subs, www.the12volt.com or crutchfield dont have diagrams for multiple speakers off a 2channel or 4 channel which is retarded so its difficult for me to help you. 12 volt only has diagrams for monoblocks ... However a single 4 ohm speaker to a bridged 2 channel amp yeilds 4 ohms then dividing the power into a mid and tweet i would think is an 8 ohm load per channel on a 2 channel. Just a guess lol


My goal: 2ohm amp load. Don't care what it ends up being on the speakers. Just want that for the power. I want wiring diagrams for these speakers to get a 4ohm load and a 2 ohm load on a 4 channel and a 2 channel. Willing to donate some FG, can purchase the fg. :)

Well my thought process with that was so that all the right sides were playing together and all the lefts were playing together.

Don't be cheap, if you're going to be cheap run them off the HU til you save up extra cash for the proper amp IMO.


I can afford the right amp, was just trying to see if I could save some cash and have a great setup at the same time. Just deciding which amp is the right amp at this point. 600 or 400 watts? and how to wire them? Because if there is no way to make a 2 ohm load on the amp with the speakers i already purchased then I will have to get the 600 watt amp.

And your front and rear would play together.

Also how would you get four rca's to run a two channel amp without nigger rigging it?

No idea. This would be my first 4 channel setup I have ever done. Did the sub my self. :) So this is slightly different. So I really have no idea on what I am doing at this point. But I am learning it all through out the day today lol

Which one? 600 or 400? Can I do a 2ohm load with a setup on a 4 channel?

Why would you need/want to wire the speakers to2 ohms. With a 4 channel amp you wouldn't need to bridge any speakers, if your worried about the component speakers that's what the crossover is for. There is no advantage of running speakers at 2 ohms. And look at what each speaker power rating are to figure out with amp you should go with (400w or 600w)

They are 4 ohm speakers. Amps are rated at different ohms because they put out different watts at different ohm loads. I want to figure out how to drop these speakers I have from a 4 ohm impedance to a 2 ohm so I can go with the 400 watt amp instead of the 600 watt amp.

If wiring these differently will save me some cash and some stress on my alternator going through all this to get a wiring diagram to do it is worth it :)
