From 4 ohm to 2 ohm back to 4 ohm resulted in loss of power.

[QUOTE="Wolfenit415, post: 8091679, member: 654473"] Hey there friend thanks for the reply. I just recently learned that i had the subs ran at 2 ohms on the amp. This just isn't something i realized. I'm fairly new to this and your post confirms this. I guess this is something that could all really be in my head? Maybe i'm just getting used to it. Now its recently been getting hot here where i live. I assume the difference in temps on the car metal and plastic could have something to do with the way the rear view mirror had been rocking and rolling before. Maybe with everything being warm its just more pliable and less prone to vibrations? So in all reality all i did is run them into 2 ohm a different way? How i have them now is back the way they were originally. A speaker on the left and the right each end of the box has a spring loaded pos and neg terminal. I had each speaker wired to the respective terminals inside the box, then the wires ran outside the box from the pos and neg were twisted to their respective wire and then inserted into the amp to the pos and negative. So i am correct in realizing that this is a 2 ohm load. Thanks again! Sorry if i sound silly. My hearing isn't the best and sometimes i think i'm missing a lot. [/QUOTE]
