Easy Question--- One Channel is for the "High End" or Trebble-- The Other Channel is for the "Lower End" or Bass partition of the amplifier-- Careful not to hook up High End speakers to the "Bass Channel, as they will generally POP like the WEASEL!

Is a 250 watt mono channel amp good enough for 2 100 watt speakers?

Monoblock amp? No. Only 1 channel which is good for one speaker, or one sub. What you need is either a 2 channel amp or a bridgeable 4 channel amp, which would be overkill anyway. If the amp you have is 2 channel, it would be ideal.

How do you know if your amp is putting out one channel or two channels?

It will say mono if its only 1 channel which is a sub amp only.


How can one tell if the sub and amp are compatible?

Finding a compatible sub and amp can be a hard process. It is important to look at several variables. An easy way to tell if a sub and amp are compatible is by visiting the Sonic Electronix website. This site provides a free amplifier and subwoofer matching tool.


What is a two channel amp?

A two channel amp, in simple terms, means that it amplifies two different inputs channels (left and right usually, or could be front/rear), and outputs them into two different channels. Other types of amps you may run across is a one channel amp, which again amplifies one signal or channel.


If you have two 900 watt RMS subs what size amp do you need to properly push them?

A 2 channel 900w per channel amp or less will run it, or a 1800w one channel amp etc.. Keep in mind the ohms need to match up too


Can you hook up one subwoofer to a 2 channel amp?

uhhh noo


How many subs can you hook up to a mono amp?

well if its a 2 channel then 1 pair of subs like if it has only one red and one white connecters then only one pair of subs then if it has 2 of each then 2 pairs of subs that's called a 4 channel amp seacrh in Google 4 channel amp and 2 channel amp you'll see what am talking about see look http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter/car/subwoofer_wiring/4DVC_4-ohm_4ch.jpg


Can you hook both a subwoofer and speakers to 1 amp If so do I need to buy a amp that's even more powerful Then what the sub requires?

You can connect a sub and speakers to one amp, depending on how many channels your amp has. A 4 channel amp will be able to run one (or two) subs using two channels (one bridged* sub or two subs) and two speakers running one channel each. A 2 channel amp will run 2 speakers or one bridged sub. A 6 channel amp will run one bridged sub (or two subs), 2 front speakers and 2 rear speakers. In my opinion, you will get the most performance, depending on which amps you use, by using a monoblock amp for your sub and an amp with enough channels to run all of your speakers. # Bridged = putting together the power of two channels to run one sub or speaker. Note: not all amps are bridgeable.


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.


Will a 2000 watt four channel amp work with one 2000 watt Kicker?

yes it will


For sub woofers do you need a mono amp or a 2 channel amp?

Depends if you are building heavy bass system with quite a few subs then a mono amp would be suggested but if it is just a single sub just for a standard bass upgrade then a 2 channel amp would be fine you can still use a mono amp on one sub just remember to take into perspective the RMS rating and the Impedance on both the Subs and the Amp
