meaning its running on 4ohm svc right?

but then.... my sub can also be wired like this

this means i have a DVC sub but only wired for SVC@ 4ohm right?

would it better to wire it for 2ohm or 4ohm???

if wire at 4ohm...what monoblock would be suitable?
if wire at 2ohm...what monoblock would be suitable?

EDIT:
was also surfing the alphasonik webbie and i came across a sub that looks alot like mine... or at least the cone does. cant remember what the magnet and frame looks like.... but heres a pic of it... might or might not be what im using...

my sub looks alot like the psw112c. so it might be that one.

would really appreciate any help.... thanks!

spl will go to 2 ohm in ur system.....the lower the better.if u got 2 sub, then go to 1 ohm...so u can maximise ur amp capabilities...

just to update....

got muhself an agako eg-2000d monoblock for 1.4k in subang. should be one of the older models since its not on the webbie anymore... but im really impressed with this amp.

sadly, my woofer cant really take this amp and it cannot be wired for 2ohm. tried it with the amp and in less than one song started smelling sumthin already. took out the woofer from the box and there was smoke!!!! sweat.gif so left it at 4ohm and now its booming away happily....at least for now... think i might have to buy a new SPL sub later on... brows.gif
