Steve Emm 6 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Hello all! My name is Steven Emm and I just bought my first Carver amp! An PM-1.5 to power my 18" DVC sub. The bad news is that my sub is 2 ohms per coil. Here's the good news, I HAVE TO BUY ANOTHER SUBWOOFER!!! WAHOO!!! So, I will buy another sub, wire the whole thing to 8 ohms, bridge the amp mono and turn the subs inside out!!! Sound like a good plan??? What do y'all think? 4 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisTFM35 307 Posted March 11 Share Posted March 11 Welcome to the board. I will suggest getting that amp recapped before hard use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian_at_HHH 2,539 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Welcome Steve! Hope your neighbors love your taste in music! They're going to be hearing it, by the sounds of it - even if the nearest is a couple of miles away! Sounds like a great excuse for another sub. Tough choice to have to deal with! Good luck with it and let us know how it goes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
