Got Some Microwoofers!

I was at work yesterday. and two of those apple ipod docking stations w/ full range speakers got returned. The disposition was to scrap them. Well most likely it's just the base unit, not the speakers broken. So I took all four speakers out, grabbed the DMM, and the coils read 4ohms on each one, so single 4ohm. So then I grabbed cardboard box, and drew some circles on them. I haven't cut them out yet as you can see in the pix. That is what I am fixing to do now. I don't have an amp to power them with. but i know some guys who do.

On to the questions. Four 4ohm speakers will wire down to 1 ohm right? I am going to go to RF to get the directions of how to wire them. then borrow a 400.1 1ohm stable amp from someone, and power this little sealed enclosure. If anyone thinks they can design me a ported box, feel free. If these things sound good enough, I am going to keep them to show off in a nice little sealed MDF enclosure. If they cant be ported. I have no specs on these. About how many cuf if i go sealed?

On to the pictures.

Thats a seriously awesome/hilarious idea. I hope it all works out. Will 100watts be too much for em each? How many watts was the original unit?

Ok, so a 200.1 1ohm stable to push around 50wrms to each one? Gains set respectively.

at least 1000wrms, just to get them moving.

I was thinking if they sound good to buy like 50 of the aura 2" woofers, and run then in a 4cuf box tuned to 36hz!

a wall of 2" woofers do it
