Go to Post I've been inspired for real engineering during the build season and on the playing field, but the inspiration I found in the pits is often for creative thinking and intuition. - artdutra04 [more]

Multi Subwoofer wiring - which amp to use? -- Help!!!

Here's the story, I have 3 subwoofers.

They are all rated at 4 ohms but; one sub is 800 watts, one is 600 watts, and one is 400 watts. (Please don't ask why ) I want to run them all at the same time in my car. How do I safely wire them and what features on the amp do I need to match up with the subs. What the heck does 200 wats X 2 channel really mean?? I am looking to get ~400 watts to each sub so as not to blow the smallest wattage one, is this correct.

I can wire them in parallel and I come up with 1.3333333 ohms total resistance. I would probably want to find a 1 ohm stable amplifier.

Please point me in the right direction in terms of amplifiers which can handle this and/or guides on how to do this on my own.

Thanks in advance for any help!!!
