IMO zero ohms of resistance is possible....

IE a piece of metal, or two leads touching each other...gives you zero ohms.

HOWEVER in a car audio environment there is no way to reach 0 ohms, because no matter how many loads you parallel down, you'll always have resistance of wire and resistance of connections.

it might have already been said but I'm not reading through all of it

same applies to those two leads touching each other...there's still resistance, its the exact same concept

I guess your're right.

Theres ALWAYS some resistance, even on the microscopic level (.0000000000001)

So...IMO there is no such thing as absolute zero resistance

OP, You must have failed math...

only if your voice coils and power wire are made of TlBaCaCuO and are soaked in liquid nitrogen //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

don't ask... im doin my science project on superconductivity lol

it doesn't take abosolute 0 K for the majority of conductors to become non resistive. (-273 C) not that yall didn't know that allready. Actually most metals that you would assume that would be used in speakers reach there "inferred absolute zero around -240ish C" such as copper and aluminum. There are also alot of materials that reach there "inferred absolute zero" much much lower than 0 K. Such as Nichrome, Constantan, Mercury, and Manganin. Not that my 2 cents is worth anything //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

Also, good conductors such as copper are not necessarily good conductors at extremely low temps.

The point is that in real life you can't, and in theory you can.
