What happens if amplifier is connected t a DC voltage?

It will depend on the which kind of amplifier it is ,if it is made from Op amp(Non inverting Amplifier) it will simply amplify(multiply)the signal with a factor depend on the configuration of circuit which is also known as gain of the circuit.For instance if gain is 2(dimension less) and input DC voltage is 2 Volt output would be 4 Volts. and if it an Audio or RC coupled amplifier output would be zero Hence i Wrote in the starting "It will depend on the which kind of amplifier it is"


What amp would be best for a 12 inch 2 ohm kicker L7?

Well a Kicker ZX750.1 would work you would need 2 of them. A1000/2 - Precision Power PPI 2 Ch 1000 Watt Amplifier. HCCA-D600 - Orion 1 Ch 600 Watt Amplifier need 2. HD750/1 - JL Audio 1 Channel 750 Watt HD Amplifier also need 2


What are Pre-Amp outputs?

They are RCA type connectors on the back of your Head Unit (Radio). There are 2 connections, usually blue and white, the cord for this has the same connectors on both ends. The Pre-Amp outputs are a direct line for the Signal from your Head Unit to go directly to an Amplifier (you will see similar connections on your Amplifier as you see on the back of your Head Unit), so when you run speaker wire from your Amplifier, the speakers will play the sound (Music) your Head Unit is producing no matter if its from the CD or FM/AM tuner or AUX input like from an I-Pod.Another AnswerA pre-amplifier, which is also known as a 'control unit', a high-fidelity unit which is separate from, but which must be used together with, a 'power amplifier'.Pre-amplifier/power amplifier units are normally regarded as 'high end' equipment and tend to be very expensive. The pre-amplifier unit is equipped with inputs for phono, CD-player, tuner, and various other auxiliary units and (usually) provides a single pair (right- and left-channels) audio outputs for connection to the power amplifier. The pre-amplifier is the unit which provides the volume control, tone controls, filters, etc., while the power amplifier simply amplifies the output from the pre-amplifier unit. The output usually takes the form of a pair of RCA connectors, usually colour coded white and red.Some 'home theatre' amplifiers provide a 'pre-amplifier' output, which bypasses its internal power amplifier, for the purpose of adding external power amplifiers, if desired.

Wires 1 and 2 are made of the same metal. Wire 2 has twice the length and twice the diameter of wire 1. What is the ratio of the resistances of the two wires?

Wire 1 has radius R, and wire 2 has radius 2R. Wire 1 has length L and wire 2 has length 2L. Since resistance is inversely proportional to cross sectional area and proportional to length resistance of wire 1 is:c*L/pi*R^2, where c is a constant based on the material.The resistance of wire 2 is:c * 2L/pi *(2R)^2, or squaring the 2R term we have c * 2L/pi * 4R^2, and simplifying we have: c*L/2pi*R^2.Now, to get the ratio of wire 1 to wire 2 we divide equation 1 by equation 2 and simplify:c*L/pi*R^2 / c*L/2pi * R^2. When you divide a fraction by another fraction you invert and multiply, so this becomesc*L *2piR^2 / c*L *pi * R^2. Each of the variables cancel leaving the ratio of resistance of wire 1 to wire 2 is 2:1, or wire 1 has twice the resistance of wire 2 even though wire 2 is twice as long.An Alternative AnswerResistance is directly proportional to length, and inversely proportional to cross sectional area. The cross-sectional area of a circle is proportional to the square of the diameter. So, conductor 2 is twice as long, so you can double its resistance; but its diameter is doubled, so its resistance is then reduced by a quarter. So the resistance of conductor 2 is half that of conductor 1!

If you have a sub woofer do you need an amplifier?

There are two types of subwoofers. 1. Active subwoofers 2. Passive subwoofers An active subwoofer will have a built-in amplifier. A passive subwoofer doesn't have a built-in amplifier which will require the use of an amplifier, the use of a power source.


Can you use a mono power amplifier to power speakers or aew they strictly for subwoofers?

Certainly, you can also use 2 mono amps to power left and right stereo channels. One for each channel. Using one mono amp for stereo results in a mono output though.


Can you power 2 door speakers on a mono amp?

If you have two 300 watt subwoofers for your vehicle then what size amp do you need?

To power two 300 watt subwoofers, you will need an amplifier with a maximum power output of at least 600 watts. It is recommended to choose an amplifier with a slightly higher wattage rating to ensure that the subwoofers receive enough power for optimal performance.


Can a mono amplifier play 2 speakers?

Yes


Would running two 4 Ohm dual voice coil subwoofers add to 16 Ohms?

There are many different ways that you could wire two dual voice coil subwoofers. Depending on how you connect the voice coils, you could have 1ohm (all coils in parallel), 4ohms (parallel-series combination). Technically you could wire them for 16ohms (all in series), but this isn't done in practice because an amplifier won't provide much power to a 16ohm load. You should wire the subwoofers to make an impedance (which is the 'ohms') which will match your amplifier. Not all amplifiers can handle 1ohm, so you may need to wire the subwoofers for 4ohms. Be sure to do some research on this before wiring anything up or you could damage your amplifier.

2 ohm stable amp can you wire up your four 4 ohm svc speakers too 2 ohm?

I think if you have 2 subs, you have to wire them in parallel so they are both loaded to 4 ohms, then the amplifier will see a 2 ohm load. what amp are yu using? im planning on getting a 2ohm stable class d mono amplifier for my 4 ohm DVC Subs. You need to wire both positives to one positive input and both negatives to one negative input for parallel wiring. That's what ive learned. Since your amplifier is stable at 2 ohms, you shud get a lot of power.


What is the differences in a 1 channel amp and a 2 channel amp?

when you connect the rcas to a 1 channel (mono) amp. the signal from the left rca and right rca is combined to give you a mono signal. that signal is then amplified and sent out through the one channel. a 2 channel amp will send the signal from the left rca to one channel and the signal from the right to the other channel. mono amps are usually used to power subwoofers. 2 channel and 4 channel amps are usually used to power speakers 5 channel amps are usually ment to power speakers plus a subwoofer/subwoofers 2 channel amps are also used to power subwoofers in different situations. if you have one subwoofer with a 4 ohm impendance your better off powering that sub with a 2 channel amp instead of a mono amp. this is because you can "bridge" the 2 channels for this sub which will put a 2 ohm load on each channel. which theoretically means it will put out twice as much power as it would compared to if it had a 4 ohm load on each channel. this means that you can buy a less powerful amp which will be cheaper for you, and also smaller, so it will take up less space.. a big bonus in car audio. bridging is simply using both channels for one load (sub/s), this is done by connecting the pos. wire to the pos. output of one channel and connecting the neg. wire to the neg. ouput of the other channel. pretty much every amplifier in production nowadays is bridgable.


What jl amplifier would i need to support 2 jl 10W0v3 subwoofers i have a 500 1 is that too big?

no such thing as 'too big' for amps; 500W for 2 10" subs is a bit light.


Can you run a single 2ohm dual voice coil sub and a single 4ohm DVC sub off a single mono amp?

It depends on the amplifier. If you absolutely want to leave the current subwoofer configuration as 2ohm and 4ohm, the resultant impedance seen by the amplifier is as follows: Both wired In-Series: 2ohm + 4ohm = 6 ohms Both wired In-Parallel: 1 / ( (1/2) + (1/4) ) = 1.3 ohms The Parallel configuration can probably be only run by a 1ohm-stable amplifier whereas the 6ohm Series configuration can be run by any amplifier that is able to drive anything under 6 ohms. Also if ran in the Parallel configuration, this mismatch in driver impedance may also cause the 2ohm subwoofer to receive more power, resulting in a different sound characteristics than the 4ohm subwoofer. Usually with DVC subwoofers you want to match the impedance between drivers. If possible, configure each subwoofer to 4ohms and connect them in Parallel. This will produce a total impedance of 2 ohms (you need a 2ohm-stable amplifier). If your DVC subwoofers only support 2ohms and 8ohms do either: Both wired In-Series - configure subwoofers to 2ohms: 2ohms + 2ohms = 4ohms Both wired In-Parallel - configure subwoofers to 8ohms: 1 / ( (1/8) + (1+8) ) = 4ohms.
