Dvc subs one side off on impedance

[Dbar31181]

I have two Memphis 12-in DVC subs on one of them one side the impedance is crazy off can I run just one side how would you wire that with the other one on a monoblock amp

You can use just one

Can I still drop the other side down to two ohms on a Sony 1100 watt monoblock amp since there is actually two places to hook speakers up it's only one channel but there's two places pos neg pos neg

Don't run one VC. You need to run both. Post up the ohm readings that you got for both coils and what ohm VC you are supposed to have.

It honestly sounds like you have a lead problem or that one voice coil is almost blown.

yeah I have a blown voice coil that's what I'm saying can I just run one and I know it'll be half the power but can I run one and still drop the other one down or do I have to run it at four ohms also

You can technically run one, but I would suggest you find a solution to get it fixed, whatever route you may choose.

Using one coil its fine till he gets a recone. What kinda retarded dislike is that. It won't hurt anything

Thanks y'all it is actually about the same sound since amp cut off with dvc hooked up is the price worth getting a recone I don't know nothing about it but thank you all again

Because he has two subs. You can technically run a single VC, but it's not the right thing to do with 2 subs, at all, IMO. He needs to get it fixed, that's the real solution. No offense meant.

Yeah getting it fixed is the plan bro but I figured it out today it's Christmas money's tight and I wanted the neighborhood to know I was coming so it'll work until I get whatever replace the speaker or the cone or whatever thanks for your all's help though for real

I feel you I've dropping some major money (for me at least), it's tight for me too.

How much does it cost to get one reconed or whatever what exactly do I have to have done or can I do it
