[QUOTE="rb042hou, post: 8663229, member: 676127"] I have a zapco mono amp. 150 watts @ 4 ohms 250 watts @ 2 ohms 500 watts@ 1 ohm stable The sub is Image Dynamics Dual voice coil rated 250 watts @ 2 ohms. Can I wire it in parallel to 1 ohm? What will the amp be sending to the sub? Will it blow the sub? Does it send 250 watts to each voice coil? My understanding is that if I wire it in series than it becomes a 4 ohm load to the amp. But don't only want to send 150 watts to sub. Any help is appreciated. Thanks [/QUOTE]
