So it is somewhat important but its not as much as the other ohm rating, i kinda get it now ....thx 4 the input fellas. greatly appreciated!

lol, don't say that now, u'll get flamed for it.

ah ... whatever, lol. I get the picture now though. Before I was lost and didnt really know what to make of that number (//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif) now i have a better understanding. In reality I guess all the specs and numbers are important to a certain extent.

ah ok. So where I'm getting confused is the meaning behind those specs. What is the RE rating compared to the D1 and D2 ratings.
I now get D1 is Dual 1ohm and D2 is Dual 2 ohm but what is the RE .7 and 1.4 ohms

Resistance vs Impedance:

Until this time, we only discussed resistance. I said that resistance is the opposition to the flow of current. While this is true, it would be more precise to say that resistance is the opposition to the flow of direct current. Impedance is the opposition to the flow of alternating current. AC causes some devices to act differently than they do with DC. This is true with speakers. If you use a voltmeter to measure the resistance of a speaker's voice coil, you may read something like 3.2 ohms (resistance) even if the speaker has a rated impedance of 4 ohms. The impedance of a speaker is not a constant. It's actual impedance changes with frequency and can vary greatly. Manufacturers give you a nominal impedance, which is generally the average impedance that the speaker will present to the amplifier when driven within the part of the audio spectrum that its designed to reproduce

Nice Find! That makes perfect sense to me now.

lol true but atleast I explained why it happns //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

just gives more detail and explains it better to somebody more clueless then me, lol. I got it with the first one though.
