Wiring ?'s

[SpeakerBoy 64]

how would you choose to wire three single four ohm subs?

likewise, how would you choose to wire five single four ohm subs?

The only way I see to wire an odd number of SVC subs and get a practical load is to put them all in parallel with each other.

So for 3 subs you have 1.33 ohms and for 5 you get 0.8 ohms.

oh i see....i just parallel? i was thinking it would be really confusing. thanks

would i void the warranty on a sundown amp, if i ran it at 0.8ohms? not really into buying one now, much to costly, but for future reference.

why not just get 4?

why not just get 4?

not enough room in my trunk

i would love to, but in order for me to get a custom box, i have to save up more than this current box and the three woofers combined. just not practical at the moment.

Well you asked about 5 subs, so why wouldn't 4 work? Or was 5 just an arbitrary example?

And why not tell us all that this system entails so that we know what's actually going on and can maybe help further.
