[QUOTE="Fallout, post: 5064083, member: 602539"] Hi! I have an Alpine PDX 4.150 Amp. Rated 4x150W @ 2Ohm or 4Ohm. I want to get an 10" Alpine R Sub. You can order them with 2 Ohm Dual Voice coil or with 4 Ohm Dual Voice Coil. Question 1: Are there any sound quality differences in between the 2Ohm and the 4Ohm version? Question 2: Do i want to hook up one channel to one voice coil and the other channel to the other? (2Ohm sub or 4 Ohm sub would be possible in this config) Or do i want to hook up both voice coils serial? (That means i would have to get the 2Ohm version) Or do i want to hook up both voice coils parallel? (That means i would have to get the 4Ohm version) Please don't explain me the impedance of a serial vs. a parallel configuration. I know that. I am interested in what the best config is from a sound perspective. Thank you for reading. [/QUOTE]
