I need some help, I am trying to put a single 10 in the type S and no one seems to know anything about mono amps. I have a hifonics bx1000D amp that is one ohm stable, but I don't know what specs of dvc coil to get. If I run a dvc dual 4 ohm in parallel and then "bridge" it into the single channel will that run at one ohm??? or do i need to use a dual 2 ohm speaker that will bridge both coils to one ohm??? Need some help! I am ready to say screw it and just go buy a nice simple two channel amp like I have always had!

 

If your amp is 1 ohm stable, get a dual 2 ohm sub, and wire the terminals together (+red to +red, -black to -black). That puts the 2 ohm coils in parallel, and gives you a 1 ohm load. If your amp has two sets of terminals (incase they thought you might use more than one set of wires), you can use a set for each voice coil - it'll tighten up the amp's control of the sub by helping the amp keep all of it's damping factor.

 

Thx proaudio

ohhhhh, finally someone who knows, that is why the pictures had "two" channels showing, thanks that is exactly what i needed

now i have one more question, has anyone else used the cable link thing from linkmeup.com , i called them and the guy was saying it wouldnt work right just using the cable link, but that i needed the pd2 to go with it, is this true or his he trying to get me to buy the $100 piece i dont need (which is what i think)

Just trying to keep the install as clean as possible
