I would only do the latter if your amp had a mono switch (i.e. convert the stereo input to mono NOT to be confused with bridging). DVC subs DO NOT play well if you happen to have a music source that produces a stereo bass with the sub wired in stereo. Before anyone tells me I am crazy because there are no music sources that have stereo bass, I will retort back and say for certain that many genres of modern electronic music do indeed have stereo bass! |
