[QUOTE="mbacis, post: 498260, member: 555818"] Yeah, if you run the coils in parellel you'll end up with a 2 ohm load, bad if your amp isn't rated for it. You can wire them in series and end up with the 8 ohm load. That shouldn't be bad for your amp, it'll just cut your power going to the sub in half. The best way would probably be to wire each channel on your amp to its own coil. That way your amp is getting the 4 ohm load. Problem is, you'll need two terminals (one for each coil) on your box. Someone please tell me if I am wrong. [/QUOTE]
