Just wondering with 2ohm DVC's ,
1.do I wire the the coils in series to get 4ohms and connect each to a separate channel.
2 do I wire the coils in series to get 4ohms and the speakers in series to get 2ohm a load on the same channel
or am I essentially splitting hairs. which one puts less strain on the amp?

Hey Thomas, Ive ben reading conflicting statements regarding the dip switches on the ep2500. The consensus is #3 & #8 should to be right to turn the filter off. I found somewhere that all of them should be to the right? The way Im wiring is this correct?
1-R 2-R 3-R 4-L 5-L 6-L 7-L 8-R 9-R 10-R
for stereo mode..... or is this right

From the 'Steals Deals and Recommended Equipment link ...
The big DIP switch on the back of the EP-1500/2500 amps have +/- marks molded into plastic housing. On some amps these molded in markings are opposite the settings that are screened in graphic on the back of the amp.
If you're using one of these amps and you don't think you're getting enough low frequency output CHECK THE POSITION of the selector switches on the back of the amp.
DIP switches #3 & #8 need to be turned OFF, since there is confusing information as to which position is OFF, try both positions. In one position there's going to be a lot more bass than the other.
When #3 & #8 are OFF, it doesn't matter what position the 30Hz/50Hz switches (#2 & # 9) are in since they're deactivated.

Thomas, I'd like to thank you for the site and all the help. I cant stress how phenomenal it sounds, but I know you know this. I haven't watched much in the way of a movie, spent most of the time listening to bd music. Kick drums now sound so natural along with bass strings. Im looking forward to breaking these drivers in, the suspension is stiff, so it can only get better. Thanks again for your help and all the FAQ's
Jeff
