Wireing Question...
Ok, I got a new box, got rid of the bandpass and went ported. While doing so, I found out the specs on my sub are different. 8 Ohms a piece, and the amp is 4 Ohms bridged. Would it be best to hook them up parallel as bridged?

Re: Wireing Question...
Ok, I did that, and it sounds virtually the same as it did 2 channel canfig in series. that should be round 120 some watts, it should be round 370 bridged. Any thoughts?

Re: Wireing Question...
Ok, I set my gains almost all the way down (or up, which ever give it the louder sound), Still doesnt kick much better even tho I should be pushin atleast 1 1/2 the watts, I also get no clipping from what I could tell, which is good. But if I turned it all the way down (or up) it started to distort a lil bit. Any other reason why i wouldnt hit the kicks I should be getting?

Re: Wireing Question...
distort=clipping.
