How many watts will i get

[no_username 2]

So i didnt realize till after i bought my amp its a 2 channel amp instead of mono. So heres the wiring im going to do

http://a248.e.akamai.net/pix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter/car/subwoofer_wiring/2DVC_4-ohm_2ch-br.jpg

Now i cant understand my amp specs as i dont understand how to fully read them correctly. But there this

300X1 @ 4 ohm

500X1 @ 2 ohm

750X1 @1 ohm

So my question is in the wiring i did how many watts will each sub get? Thanks

Looks like you have a monoblock. Some monoblocks have more speaker connections to make wiring multiple subs easier. Link to exact amp please.

Im pretty sure its not a mono but i dont know much

Didn't you buy an AQ750? If so it is mono. If you bought the two d4 DCON's you'll want to wire to one ohm.

But i thought mono amps only have one terminal for both - & +?

with those specs above each sub will get 150 watts.

here is how you read it:

Watts per channel @ some ohm load

so 300x1@4ohm = 300 watts on 1 channel at a load of 4ohms

if I was you I would wire the subs to a 1ohm load! this equals more power!

also the above specs are for a MONO amp not a 2 channel amp. Which amp do you have?

Also on ALL mono amps they have 4 output terminals which are commonly internally paralleled for easy wiring/ hooking up of speakers. So don't confuse a mono for a 2 channel based on the number of output terminals!

specs for a two channel amp would look like this

125W x 2CH @ 4ohm Stereo

200W x 2CH @ 2ohm Stereo

400W x 1CH @ 4ohm bridged

and specs for a 4 channel could look like this

100W x 4CH @ 4ohm stereo

160W x 4CH @ 2ohm stereo

320W x 2CH @ 4ohm bridged

Well good sir, the Aq 750d IS a monoblock amplifier.

LOL looks like I spent to much time typing and not enough time waiting!

ya the above amp AQ 750 is a mono amp and what subs do you have? and or how much can they handle?

also what kind a car? build log? and electrical upgrades?

I have 2 DCON DVC 10". so 300w:) 04 Grand Am. no build log but it will be in this once i start it

^ pics towards bottom.

No upgrades. I just hope i dont need a HO alt

Oh geez. Facepalming myself

I finally understand that diagram. Makes more sence now

I kept think the wires from + to + and - to - where the subbox. LOL Silly, i got it now!

lol some amps have 2 pos and 2 neg for speaker wires...

Make sure to triple check your work! It can make a huge difference if you make a silly mistake.
