How many watts is the mtx 4002 - MTX 4002 Car Audio Amplifier

The mtx thunder is a 4 channel amp. 4 channels can't be bridged to 1 speaker. You can only use one side of that amp to bridge your speaker. Unfortunately your now only using half your amp.

It should tell you on the back of the sub ,The continus watts it will handle, If not phone the place you got it from, Or some place that sells them,

Output is 400 watts bridged @ 4 ohms

here is the specs on your speakers. mtx 4500 specs.

Specifications Power Output: 100 Watts RMS x 2 channels at 4 Ohms ≤ 1% THD+N Signal-to-Noise Ratio: 80 dBA (reference: 1 W output) Additional Power Output: 200 Watts RMS x 2 channels at 2 Ohms ≤ 1% THD+N
400 Watts RMS x 1 channel bridged at 4 Ohms ≤ 1% THD+N THD+N (Distortion): <0.25% (reference: 1 W output) Frequency Response: 20 Hz to 20 kHz (-3dB) Maximum Input Signal: 5V Maximum Sensitivity: 100mV Dimensions: 14.37 x 9.72 x 2.5 (365mm x 247mm x 63.5mm)

my guess is that it would be a 400 watt 2 channel wich means 200 watts per channel or you could prob bridge it to make a full 400 watts to one channel

Hello jandytaala,

The recommended power range for you T4510-04 is 112.5 to 225 watts RMS. So you need a monoblock amp within that range. You could go up to about 300 watts RMS, but watch the gain and don't try to get too much from a single 10" sub.

The Orion Cobalt shown here would be a good match and is only $139.99. For another $60, the Alpine MRP-M500 will output 300 watts into 4 ohms.

Hope this helps.

disconnect the subs from the amp and check to see if the amp will turn on and stay on-check the subs to see if they are blown with a different source try a pair or a single sub that you know works fine on the amp and see if it plays-this should tell you whether your amp is fried or your subs are roasted

Hello aj_vidal22,

Here's the link to MTX's sub page where you can view or download the information you need to properly wire the subs to your amp.

For maximum power, you'll need to wire the subs so that they present a 2 ohm load to the sub outputs on your amp. That will give you the full 420 watts RMS the amp is rated for. Likewise, you,ll want the run the front 4-channels at 2 ohms. Run separately, they produce 85 Watts times 4 channels, or if bridged, 130 watts times 2-channels. But if you run fronts at 4 ohms, they only produce 70 watts times 4 channels and your sub output at 4 ohms drops to 210 watts.

Hope this helps.

The red light is normal and indicates the amp is powered up. Check your signal wires (RCA patch cords?) and speaker wires. Need more info to be of more help. What receiver are you using? How is it connected to the amp?
