I just picked up a DVC subwoofer. I am going to use this amplifier for the time being to power it.
Kenwood KAC-729S
Maximum Power: 600W
•100W x 2 @ 4 ohms 14,4V (0,08% THD)
•150W x 2 @2 ohms 14,4V (0,8% THD)
•300W x 1 14,4V (0,8% THD)
I have two questions:
1) If the amp has a maximum power output of 600watt, why is it that I can only get 300w x 1 @ 14.4V as the most power from it? Shouldn't I be able to get 600x1 bridged?
2) Also, since my new subwoofer has DVC, it has two connections to place + and - wires to. Can anyone explain how to use this to make more power?
Sorry for the total newbie questions, i'm not familiar with stereo equipment. Usually, I just connect the amp, wire a positive and negative speaker wire to the sub, and call it a day. Now, the 4 ohm load, 2 ohm load, etc are totally beyond my knowledge.
