2 18 btls sundown 3500d

Recommended Posts

i have two fully loaded 18 inch btls dual 1 ohm and one sundown 3500d for now not to sure on the way to wire them... preety much a noob when it comes to wiring subs....my guess is since that i bought dual 1 ohms i will only be able to run them at 2 ohms or .5 ohms if u guys could let me know if this is correct and maybe throw a picture up on how i should wire them that would be great thanks guys

No..

Dual 1's wire to 1ohm, or 4ohms.

Which is fine for a 1ohm amplifier...if you are planning on running an amp per sub later you are going to run into wiring issues..unless you pickup an amp that is designed to do power at 2ohms.

ok thanks alot that is good news to me cuz i didnt want to run the amp at .5 ohms if i didnt have too voids the warranty....so on the wiring i should run pos to pos and out to the amp and neg to neg and out to the amp per sub right or wrong???

Connect 1+ and 1- on each sub together then run 1+ from eah sub out and 1- from each sub out

the sundown amp has 2 pos outputs and two neg ouputs so instead of wiring the subs together and only having one set of wires to the amp i should run them seperate and have two sets going to the amp for a 1 ohm load right???

Yes, wire each sub to 2ohm and let the amp take you to 1ohm.
