  • Amp + DVC sub question!

    So I recently bought a used amp, a Pioneer GM-X862. I also just bought a new 12" DVC sub, the Infinity Reference 1252w Now, since this is a dual voice coil sub, I can either get a 2ohm or 8ohm impedance. Here are two examples of what I could do: http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter...

  • Tech Terms Demystified: Impedance

    Impedance is one of those tech terms whose meaning is just close enough to its general definition to cause some confusion. In everyday language, an impedance is a hindrance — an obstacle to be overcome. Electrically, impedance is a neutral term — part of the physical properties of electrical...

  • Re: speaker wire?

    This raises another issue regarding speaker wire, impedance, etc. 1 for the pros here to contemplate. Whenever I am cutting my wires to run from amp to speakers, I measure the length I need to run to the speaker furthest from the amp, then cut both or all 4 wires the same length. My logic here is that...

  • Re: watts and ohms

    You need 4 ohm marine grade speakers that can handle 20 watts RMS. I am also in the process of replacing the outside speakers on my camper. Mine are only 2 - 5.25" Jensen speakers, so you know how bad that sucks. I found some Polk marine grade on Crutchfield.com I have my mind set on. I am planning...

  • Pioneer DEH-P5000UB speaker suggestions

    I just purchased a Pioneer DEG-P5000UB h/u for my 2002 Silverado and I am looking for some advice in selecting speakers. I'm wanting to replace the four factory speakers with speakers that will give me a nice warm, rich sound. Subs are not in the plan until sometime in the future. I'm looking at the...

  • i have an amplifier with an unspecified impedance. can anyone help?

    i have a valor vpa1005 and i'm not sure what the impedance is the description sounds like you can run it at both 4 ohm and 2 ohm. i already have 4 ohm speakers hooked up to this five channel amp, and i wanted to get a sub. preferably what would be better? because the rms at 2 ohm is 600 w and at 4 ohm...
