How to strap two monoblocks
Strapping or linking two amplifiers allows you to deliver a ton of power into a single voice coil commonly used in SPL
competitions. The example below shows two of “The Ones” delivering a total of 24,000 watts RMS into a single 2 ohm
voice coil.
•
DO NOT STRAP AMPLIFIERS INTO A 1 OHM LOAD. Minimum load strapped is 2 ohm.
•
The “Master” amplifier’s preamp section controls both amplifiers. “Slave” amplifier’s pre-amp controls are disabled.
•
The negative or (-) speaker output terminals are connected together using 8 gauge wire.
•
CAUTION: This is an insane amount of power into a single voice coil. PG is not responsible for speaker failures or
damage.
