CAR Audio (Kicker)

Hello, My friend just got a zx750.1
Amp, And also a Kicker 05DC122 Subs in the stock box.



My question is, how would you wire Them subs with this amp.

The Subs Come stock as a 2ohm load, I think.
Would you brige Them both? N would It come out as a 2ohm load?

Or how would you do that?! Please Help.

you can prob raise the load to 4 or 8 because if you bridge the amp and directly wire both voice coils in, it'll drop it to 1ohm and your amp won't be able to handle that. i look around and see if i can find some diagrams to better explain this

EDIT: found a few diagrams that will help you. these may not be your speakers but the wiring diagram is the same all across the board

wire each sub so they give a 4 ohm load, then when you hook them together they will create a 2 ohm load which the amp can handle. If you try to hook it up now (as said the subs are wire for 2 ohms) it will end up being a 1 ohm amp presentation, which will not be good. And make sure you are using good wiring to hook it all up. I see it alot where people by great equipment, then cheap out on the wires. If the wire (mainly power and ground) arent thick enough, it will cause issues. A good 4 gauge kit will work for that amp. You could go 8 gauge, but I recommend the 4 gauge. If you have access to a DMM, (digital multi meter) use it to be sure you are getting the load correct.
