How To Wire 1 Ohm Subwoofer Welcome to the ct sounds subwoofer wiring wizard. our subwoofer wiring calculator allows you to figure out how to wire your dual 1 ohm, dual 2 ohm, and dual 4 ohm subwoofers in several different qualities. if you are wanting to know how to wire your subs look no further than our wire diagram. Below are the available wiring diagrams for the speaker configuration you selected. the resulting impedance (ohm load) is considered the "nominal impedance" seen by the amplifier. note: one or all of the wiring options shown in this application may not be compatible with your amplifier because of low impedance loads.
Wiring 1 Diagram Ohm Subwoofer This subwoofer wiring application includes diagrams for single voice coil (svc) and dual voice coil (dvc) speakers. a svc speaker has one voice coil and one set of terminals, one positive ( ) and one negative ( ). a dvc speaker has two voice coils, each with its own set of terminals. because of this, dvc speakers (typically subwoofers) offer. Option 1: parallel wiring – 1 ohm load. in parallel wiring, both voice coils are wired together side by side. this method reduces the overall load impedance. so, when you wire a 2 ohm dvc subwoofer’s voice coils in parallel, you achieve a 1 ohm load. for this setup, the ideal amplifier is one that is stable at 1 ohm. Instructions – bridged 1 ohm dvc subwoofer to 2 ohm amplifier. determine the total impedance load of your system and ensure it is compatible with your amplifier’s minimum impedance rating. bridge the left negative terminal to the right positive terminal of your subwoofer. test your system with a multimeter. The proper way to bridge the amp is usually indicated at the amp's speaker wire terminals. for more information, read our how to bridge an amplifier article. [shop for car amplifiers] wire. all the wires depicted in the subwoofer wiring diagrams are speaker wires. for wiring subwoofers, we recommend using wires of 12 to 16 gauge in size.
