[QUOTE="dr. no, post: 73592, member: 541721"] To get a 1 ohm load you just wire all the positive+ inputs together and all the negative- inputs together. The impedance (ohms) of the speaker doesn't change, a 4ohm coil will always be 4 ohms, it's just how you wire them together that determines what ohm-load your amplifier "sees". Your subs have 2 4ohm coils each so when you wire all 4 coils in a "parallel" configuration( all +to+ and all -to-) your amp sees a 1 ohm load.[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
