Can a PG Tantrum 500.2 be run safely at 2 ohms?

Yes in mono setup.

 

"2 Ohms Bridged / 1 Ohm Stereo Stable"

Could someone explain to me the difference between bridged and stereo?

Basically, I want to run 2 subs. Is it as simple as straight wiring 2 subs at 4 ohms each to achieve 2 ohms bridged?

 

in stereo, 1 channel (left or right) will have its discrete signal and so will the other one

with bridging, signal (voltage) is taken from 2 channels/sources .. the 2ndary source has its (inverted) signal flipped

the two signals (voltage) are combined constructively, to get double the strength.. which means more powah.. but you lose the discrete L/R signals so its not stereo



you can wire 2 4-ohm subwoofers in parallel to present a 2ohm load to the amplifier. 1/R = (1/4 + 1/4). and you would do this bridging your subwoofer outputs

 

This is exactly the answer I needed. Thanks for the info.

 

Dan, did you lose my email?

If you need some help, let me know. I am working for the FL AG now.
