how do i wire subs to amp don't no nothing about ohms
hey how are u doing i don't really understand ohms on the subs i have alum 12Q that are 6 ohm voice coil and then it says that they are for 3 or 12 ohm opetation.
is there any way to hook them up to the amp i already have that is a crunch drive series ds-2400vu 800 watts 2 ch the back of the amp says 400x2 4ohms that is brigdable and tri mode capable (not sure what that means) and it also says 600x2 at 2 ohms and 1200xp1
and if so how would i do that with all the wires if not what do i need to look at what kind of amp thanks hope u can help

Your amp is 2 ohm stable per channel. So the only thing you can do is wire each sub in parallel to get 3 ohms and run one channel to each sub. This will give you about 450 watts per sub assuming you gave me rms ratings.

just go to the top and change the setup to mirror what you have. The link that I posted here is actually the setup for my particular setup.

I hate 6 ohm vc's for this exact reason. It will be hard for you to get 1000 watts at 3 ohms from an amp. A pair of jbl 1200.1's could get you around 900 per sub probably at 3 ohms.
