the difference between a mono block and stereo amp is this: a stereo amp sees half of ohms you give it ( that is if you are trying to bridge it), the mono block see whatever ohm load you give it.

What happens if you hook up two subs to a mono channel amp?
If you hook them up you get a lousy sound cos the gigga bites in each dont get no where. You the bass is wicked but does not last for long cos the subs create holes so obviously the subs do not work and you have to fork out more so just dont be stupid and do that to your car.

Will you blow your stock speakers if you hook them up to an amp?
i couldn't find where to put more info so i did in an answer lol but before i get spammed with its stupid cause a new head unit will add enough power so you don't need it. I have a good head unit the reason i want to is because i have an equilizer that only has RC hook ups in the back and i need an amp to do that.. so if i hook them up to the amp so i can essentually hook them to my equilizer will it blow my stock speakers. i think it is like a 180 or 250 watt amp. can i turn the gain down? will i have to be gentle on the volume(don't really wanna do that) please help me
How do you hook up your amp to your factory radio?
What you need is a line level converter. This device pinches off existing, amplified, speaker wires coming out of your OEM deck. It has RCAs on it... It changes the value of energy from amplified to line level, which your amp is looking for. You will need the standard amp install kit after that.
How do you hook up an amp and sub woofer up to a stock radio in a 1996 firebird?
cut the back speaker wire going to one of the rear speakers.. take the pos and neg into the amp.. if the amp only takes RCA inputs you will need to buy a line level converter.. turns pos neg into RCA.. also you must wire up a switch for turning the amp on.. just a 12volt source works
Can you hook up two subwoofers to one receiver?
yes, you can, either via a Y-cable to the sub output, or via a pre-amp, or hook them up parallel to a mono amp or if you have a 2 channel amp then just hook them up regurally but if you have a mono amp then...have two positive and two negative wires coming out of the amp then hook 1 negative wire up to the negative spot on a speaker..then do the same with the other..then do the same with the positive

Can you hook 2 subs to a mono amp?
Sure i have 2 400 watt rockfords connected to a 400watt kenwood mono amp. This statement made by another is true.You can hook up 20 subs to a mono amp; BUT you have to configure the speakers by impedance/ohms. if you hook two 2 ohm speakers to a 4 ohm steady amp in parallel you will soon buy a new amp. if you hook 10 speakers in series you will not even get it warm. Each speaker will also divide the available wattage and will not have a lot of power. Take it to a good shop if you don't know the formula for this. you may save your amp. BMyers Lake city, FL

How do you wire an amplifier to 2 subs?
Mono amp: hook up 2 wires to the positive speaker output, and 2 wires to the negative speaker output. Hook the positives up to the positive leads on the subs, and the negatives to the negatives. Stereo amp: one positive wire to each positive output on the amp, same with negative. Make sure you get corresponding positive and negative to each sub. Stereo amp running bridged (mono): It's normally the outter positive and negative leads, but refer to the manual. Wire same way as a mono amp, just use the bridge outputs. Mono or Bridged would be running 2 ohms if you are running single coil subs. Stereo would be 4 ohms. If you have a dual coil sub (such as Kicker Comp VR), you would want to run stereo because those subs run 2 ohm's stock do to the dual voice coils. Or 1 amp per sub unless you have a 1 ohm stable amp, which most likely you don't.
