[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 2370862, member: 561023"] A) Why is being heard outside the car (whereas most people see fit to operate their motor vehicles from within the interior of said vehicles...) such a critical point? Just wondering. B) Sealed enclosures aren't meant for SPL applications [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif[/IMG] [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/fyi.gif.9f1f679348da7204ce960cfc74bca8e0.gif[/IMG] Subs and speakers do not "put out" [I]any[/I] amount of wattage, RMS or otherwise. They accept wattage from whatever source of amplification is powering them. The amp(s) "put out" wattage....not the drivers they are amplifying. Okay. It happens. See above. Again, see above. Why is being heard outside so important to some folks? If the two subwoofers in question are of the single voice coil variety he can't. If they are of the dual voice coil variety then to achieve a nominal 1 Ohm final load he would wire them like so: [IMG]http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/graphics/infolib/carlib/subs/2_4ohmDVC_1ohm.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
