[QUOTE="chardy85, post: 6959658, member: 566390"] Those are NOT coils on the box. Those are just connectors. The connectors have wires inside the box that go to the terminals on the woofer(s). You need to find out what resistance the woofers are inside the box to find out what wiring options you have. If you have TWO dual 4ohm woofers in the box each wired parallel then each output on your box will be at 2ohms. Then if you wire these two together your final load will be 1ohm. If your woofers are Dual 2 ohm and each is wired in series inside the box then each output on your box will show a 4ohm load. Then when you wire these two together to a mono amp your final load will be 2ohm. Hope this clears things up for you a bit. I am guessing that your 4ohm final load is stating that your woofers are dual 4ohm and wired in series inside the box....BUT you could rewire down to 1ohm if you need to...... [/QUOTE]
