    simple question. would this work?

    even though the speaker is 250 RMS max and the amp will put out 380 RMS at 4 ohms bridged?

    simple question. would this work?

    pioneer GM-5100t amp 380 watts RMS at 4 ohms bridged. 190 watts RMS x 2 at 2 ohms pioneer TS-W303R 12" i have a 10" DVC 2 ohm pioneer, but i want a 12" help please.

    is this speaker even close to it's potential? =/

    is wiring 2 ohms to both coils basically like having it hit twice as hard? or how does that work really? the dvc that is. my box is ported. im guessing about 12"x12"x18"

    is this speaker even close to it's potential? =/

    i'm running a 10" 2 ohm pioneer DVC with 350 W RMS with a GM-5100T amp (pioneer) and each 2 ohm channel of the amp is running to each coil. am i only getting 190W rms power basically? would it be much better to get a monoblock to run at 1 ohm and then hook it up to both coils? idk, i feel...

    quick help. wiring DVC sub with pioneer GM-5100t

    would it be ok to run the DVC 4 ohm with 500 RMS? it says 350 RMS, but 1000 watt max. and isn't it better to overpower rather than underpower the sub?

    quick help. wiring DVC sub with pioneer GM-5100t

    so also... i could just sell my 10" DVC 4 ohm and buy a 10" DVC 2 ohm if i want the most out of my current amp?

    quick help. wiring DVC sub with pioneer GM-5100t

    so how exactly am i going to ruin my stuff? all i did was come and ask for guidance. i didn't make any decisions or anything. and i'm running it with one channel to each coil. so i'm sure i'm not messing anything up. also, you had to learn this at one point too, i was trying to learn but it...

    quick help. wiring DVC sub with pioneer GM-5100t

    i got this set up for 140 dollars and it is fine for what i need. i was just wondering how to optimize. currently i'm running each channel to the own voice coil for awhile it was a series wiring with it bridged. which is basically the same thing, but worse sound quality.

    quick help. wiring DVC sub with pioneer GM-5100t

    so here's the deal. i've got a pioneer GM-5100t, which runs at 760w Max 380 RMS max it's 4 ohm i believe, and 2 ohm if bridged. and my speaker is a 10" pioneer DVC 4 ohm. so if i wire it parallel it would run at 2 ohm.. so when i run the wires from the now 2 ohm speaker, should i bridge it...

    help with RMS. should be quick :)

    lol, someone should've told me a multimeter is just a voltmeter, i've got like 3 of those. what exactly do i measure for?

    help with RMS. should be quick :)

    ok... i'm honesetly not a troll they **** me off. this is just my absolute first car audio project or anything... what exactly is a multi meter? and i'm not dumb, just not well versed in car audio at all. so basically just hook the amp and sub up, leave the gain and bass boost and the lowest...

    help with RMS. should be quick :)

    would turning the gain and bass boost up be out of the question?

    help with RMS. should be quick :)

    i have a pioneer champion series 10" 1000 watt max and 350 RMS (dual voice coil) however my amp GM-5100t runs 380 RMS bridged... should i run the sub bridged or should i just run it at half power? =[ i'd like the full potential of the sub but not if it's going to blow it. also, usually RMS...
