Bridging all amps is basically the same, as John said, but when you wire the subs with the amp, make sure you dont go below the minimum ohm load the amp can handle. I blew up a sony xplod 1000 watt amp on my friends 2 12's cuz i thought it was 2 ohm stable.....its sony xplod...what was i thinking

I got a 475w rated [Fozgate] powering that sub now...
I just want more prower and sony claims to give 800W peak nad about 400W RMS - which is what i need.
Alpine TypeR is 400W RMS
Thank you I already got one 10' TypeR in a ported box fron CC - for unbelivable $177 with a box and warranty for 2 years!
Any one know how to tell if it's a 2ohm or 4ohm ???
I had a shop that i am not gopnna name hook up my rca to only one of the rear speaker wires - and that;s why i am havin trouble with my sony amp.
rca output was too weak - so rewire of the converter box is coming up.
