No, I just test the final impedance at the end of the wire. Then sq rt of (watts x impedance)

Read the tutorial in the link.

You take the total rms of the amp, multiply that by the final inpedance of the subs, take the square root of that. Now, that is the toal volts AC from the amp at the speaker terminals that you want to read with your DMM.
