How do I wire my 15" rockwood to 2 ohm unstood of 4ohms

SOURCE: 4 ohms to 8 ohms

Hi,

Offhand, the setup would work.

• The disadvantage - the full potential of the Alto PBM8 would not be realized (though not a bad thing);
• The advantage - the Alto PBM8 would not be driven as hard, less heat on the amp output.

well to be honest your amp probly cant handel 3 speakers because of the impedance levels so just hook up 2 bridges out to + to - on one Speaker then from that same speaker run + and - to the next one

A= amp
S= speakers

A:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::S:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::S

Hello bully_bread,

Your amp will be powering the sub at 4 ohms.

The impedance or "load" that the amp sees is determined by the number of voice coil(s), the number of sub(s), and how they are connected. Whatever that final load, it is the impedance or "ohms" that the amp is supplying power at.

A single 4 ohm sub with a single voice coil cannot present a 2 ohm load. However, a sub with dual 4 ohm voice coils wired in parallel will present a 2 ohm load.

Here's a link to Rockford_Fosgate's "wiring wizard" where you will find all combinations of subwoofer wiring and the resulting loads.

Hope this helps.

Is the speaker a dual voice coil speaker? If so you can wire it up a couple of diferent ways, go to rockfordfosgate.com they have a woolfer wiring wizard that can show you the different ways to wire for 8 ohm.....4 ohm.....2 ohm....and 1 ohm...I would figure out how to get the most power out of the amp in mono mode, take that ohm load from there and see if you can wire your speaker to match it.

Placing the speakers next to each other face down, you will notice that the connection points run in sequence +- and +-. Now connect the - (negative) from the one speaker, to the + (positive) of the other speaker. Now connect the open + from the one speaker and the open - from the other speaker to your amp. Your amp should have a bridging indication. On the connection points of the amp, you should see a mark pointing to the first + and the last -. That will be your bridge and thus utilizing the full potential of your amplifier
