[QUOTE="zane, post: 11967, member: 540617"] Wired in series- you will have two subs each with 4 ohm loads. (4 ohm stereo) This would leave you the option to connect the subs together in series for an 8 ohm mono load, or in paralel for a 2 ohm mono load. The DVC 4 ohm models you sent back would have been the right ones to use for a 4 ohm mono load. By wiring each of thier coils in series - you would have 2 subs with an 8 ohm stereo load. Once these are wired together in paralel- this would yeid a 4 ohm mono load to go to your amp. If you want the 4 ohm mono load- you will need the Dual 4 ohm Voice Coil models back. Have a look here, as this may explain things a bit better, [URL="http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/2dvc.html"]http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/2dvc.html[/URL] take it easy, -zane [/QUOTE]
