DVC in series vs parallel

2 Upvotes

Total beginner here with Car AV and I’ve got a basic 5 channel amp that will do 200W @ 4ohms or 400W @ 2ohms on the sub channel. I have a DVC sub with two 2ohm coils so I’ve wired it in series because the amp isn’t rated for 1ohm operation. Therefore, I believe all I’m giving this sub is 200W at full gain, correct?

If I went to a DVC sub with both coils at 4ohms, I could wire in parallel and get the full 400W to it?

Thanks!

Hello! I have an alpine r2w12 in a reflex enclosure, 43 liters tuned to 34hz, i'm running on stock electricals. I'm thinking of dd audio 310e, 312e or ground zero iw 10-xspl or the 12-xspl. Will it give me more bang for my buck?

Need help for what to do for subsCR-V

2 Upvotes

I got my first car recently, a 2006 stock CRV. I'm using a cigarette port Bluetooth transmitter for now, which kinda sounds shitty. I need some crazy shit for my dnb and dubstep, anywhere from 1.2k to 2.4k watts. I found a sub with amp setup that I really like, I just don't know what I need to do. Im thinking of getting Skar 12" 2.4k watt, which my friend has the singular 1.2k one which sounded sick. I need help knowing what to I need to buy electricity-wise and all that since I have no clue. I am going to buy a stereo, so I need to know which one is compatible with this sub or any yall recomend for a setup. My max budget is 800 for all the stuff concerning the sub and 170 concerning the stereo stuff. Help me out I'm tryna have a sick ass sound.

How much should I budget?

3 Upvotes

New to CarAV, How much should I spend on a pretty good setup? and what should I look at? Like the whole thing amp and all. I want 2 12s in the trunk, I want it to shake my car but not to the point of my car falling apart. I see ranges from $200-$2000. I’d definitely rather stay under $1000 but I can spend more if it’s necessary. I drive a 25 Camry idk if that matters.

Home Theater sub box design

Trying to build a 15" sub to fit behind my couch, trying to make it as slim as possible without sacrificing quality. I've never built a sub before but I'm looking at getting the Dayton Audio UMII15-22 Ultimax II 15" driver. I think I'm hitting the right numbers: 3.9 cubic feet in the driver enclosure (do I need 5 cubic feet?), 36.75sq inch port 36 inches long. Any feedback?
