Pioneer Flat Sub
I have a 12″ Memphis dual voice coil flat sub in a 1.5cubic foot ported box with a Rockford Fosgate punch 2002?
I am running a pioneer 4000 head unit. The sub doesn’t sound as good as I think it should. I am running the amp as a single channel to a bridged sub? The positive of the amp, channel 1, to the positive of the sub, the negative of that connection to the positive of the other connection and the negative of that connection to the negative on the amp, channel 2. What am I doing wrong? It is in a 2008 Toyota Tundra under the rear seat facing down. Its only 1 sub.
Well this info that I am going to give you should be used with caution. If you hook up the dual voice coil sub positive to positive and negative to negative it will increase the power out put of your amp by dropping the ohm load the amp will see. Since ohms are resistance it allows more power to be created. Be careful not to over strain the amp or the sub woofer. Make sure to look at what ohm load the amp is stable at and how much power it produces at that ohm load. Make sure that it does not over power your sub woofer or you will blow it. How you will figure out what ohm load you sub is producing is each voice coil has its own ohm resistance whether it is 2,4, or 8 ohms if you run the sub how i told you in parallel two 4 ohm voice coils will create a 2ohm load on the amp. How you have it running now if the voice coils were 4 ohms you are creating an 8 ohm load to the amp. Do a little research of your own and look up parallel connections and series connections online and pull up a demonstration picture. Hope this helps. OHHHHHHHHHHH and also look at the specks for the sub if its a small enclosure sub you might have it in to big of a box. It doesn’t make it sound as good and it lowers the power handling of what the sub. PS if you get a new box go with a sealed one because the sound quality is better and in a truck you need that.
Oh and the guy above me doesn’t know what he is talking about. As long as you have a 1″ clearance from the box to the cab floor you are fine. Plus having the sub firing down cleans up the sound quality a little. You do however lose a little in loudness though.
