[QUOTE="jujumantb, post: 1533380, member: 555241"] To a point, but he is more gearing his info to a 4 vs 8 ohm debate, he does mention 2ohm aswell. There is no "true" rating, they are often rated using different units. Point is, by the very nature of an 8ohm coil, they have the capability to be more efficient, and they usually are. He never said anything about getting twice as loud, they would, theoretically, be about the same loudness, but with using much less power with an 8ohm sub . And the power wouldnt be "slashed in half" Power compression would raise the impedance high enough on the lower compression driver so that a 4 vs 8 ohm nominal impedance subs would actually be much closer than that. PS your spelling is terrible! [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
