![]() It put out good clean power, but **** 1 time going into protect and completely fried. I don't know if I even want to get it repaired as it would cost a lot and its not that great of quality. This is partially to inform people of CT's crap protection but also would like to know what you would do. These higher quality amps are Orion, DC and Mmats. Every other amp that I have owned that this amp was supposed to match in quality would go into protect, then power up after as the protection circuit wasn't a complete POS. Either way I need to know what to do, and will never spend money on CT again. I thought the point of the protection was to protect it before it was damaged, not allow it to further damage itself. I don't really understand the point in having a worthless protection circuit. ![]() Anyone have any idea how much it would cost to fix, or how much it is worth blown? Now if I power on the amp it instantly goes into protect and starts popping and smoking. but the POS protect circuit did nothing as the amp was popping and smoking while it said it was in protect. I ran this amp for awhile, then it went into protect. Once again, don’t connect the last subwoofer in the series backto the amp, because the 1st sub already connects to the amp to complete thecircuit.What would be the best course of action?. Now, run a wire from the -terminal on the amplifier to the empty - terminal on the first sub.Connect the - on the 1st sub (the one that’s connected to the amp, notthe one that’s bridged) to the empty - terminal on the 2nd subwoofer.Connect the same - on the 2nd subwoofer to the empty - on thethird subwoofer, and do the same to connect the - on the 3rd sub to the -on the 4th sub. Do not connect the4th sub back to the amplifier, the first sub is already connected to the amp. ![]() Next, connect the same + wire from the second sub to the empty + terminal on the 3rd sub, and then connect the + on the 3rd sub to the + on the 4th sub. Next, you’ll connect the +from the amp to the empty + on the first subwoofer (not the + that is already bridged with the - on the same sub.) Run another wire from the +on the first sub (the one that’s also connected to the amp) and connect that to the empty + on the second sub. This leaves both posts empty on the amp still, and each sub with one empty + post and one empty - post. ![]() Your amp has a + and a -, and each sub has two +’s and two -’s.Įach of the subs should have a bridge wire to connect one of the +’s with one of the -’s on the same sub. If you have four subs, each one with dual voice coils at 2 ohms, and a mono amp under a 1-ohm load, here’s an explanation of how to wire that… If you have two2-ohm subwoofers, you would divide 2 by 2 and get an impedance of 1 ohm. The formula for calculating the impedance in parallel wiring is to add together the total ohms from each subwoofer, and then divide them by the number of subwoofers. Unlike in series, where positives connect to negatives.
