[QUOTE="Joseph7195, post: 8296328, member: 633259"] When you hook the leads up and subtract the DMM resistance, just read what it says. It will be the impedance of the speaker. And lots of companies have their speakers and subs made in China and the manufacturer will just re-brand them to what the buyer orders. So in short, there is probably 10 different speaker companies that use that 3.5" speaker, and they all have a different name, but it's the same speaker. Now if you paid for an aftermarket system that was to include higher end Alpine components, then that's different. You got taken. But $495 from the dealer for an Alpine system, does seem like you got what you paid for. Even though it might ****. I really hate dealers inflating prices to take advantage of unsuspecting consumers.
