Re: Kenwood amp

All I could find is that its a 450w 2 channel. All the stuff that came up was in some other language.

Here is a basic wiring diagram for a two channel amp on single voice coil speakers.

Re: Kenwood amp

Thats for wiring in series. You can also wire in parallel but depends on what load your amp can take

Re: Kenwood amp

that's not series or parallel, that's just straight wiring each sub to each channel

Re: Kenwood amp

The sub I'm wiring up has dual voice coils, don't laugh at me, its an 8 inch, Im buying another, they are going to be my midranges in the future, but for now they are my bass, my friend is sponsered by MA Audio, but the only thing he can hook me up with is wires, he's got a visonik 12 inch laying around, that he's gonna give me for 70 bucks, but till i buy a second visonik im not gonna worry bout it.
Bottm line: Can i hook 2 400 watt subs up to this amp, and it has a bridged feature, there are four out terminals, to run bridged it says (+,-,+,-) for stereo its (+,-,-,+) so how do i run this amp to power two 400 watt subs with dual voice coils. I know some basic electronics, if that helps.

Re: Kenwood amp

Well, P. CON we figured out is power control, we hooked it to the head unit, running in stereo, but only on one speaker, i cant figure out how to turnn the amp up, theres a knob labeled input sensitivity, but it doesnt make it loud enogh

Re: Kenwood amp

Last night we built a bow for my two 8's we are running them inverted(does running inverted help your bass? one friend thinksd it does the other says it quiets them), There was a Visonik capacitor laying around the shop so we hooked it up, We tried the 12 inch viwsonik, but my amp couldn't make it really move, it was loud just not in a good way. For rca cabled i just spliced in wires with rca ends. I still only have 20 bucks in my bass system
