[QUOTE="SoundsUnlimited, post: 189168, member: 546257"] Ok heres the deal..If u only have one DVC sub..and u are seeking to get max power to it..Well u are going to want to have the lowest amount of resistance possible(lowest ohm load u can mustor)...SO...If u want the most power for it Keep the 2-ohm sub If u wired a 2-ohm sub parallel and then u wired a 4-ohm sub parallel..Here is what the outcome of resistance from two would be Dual 2-ohm(SUBWOOFER)=1-ohm of resistance Dual 4-ohm(SUBWOOFER)=2-ohms of resistance Now depending on what you want from your subs or what you amp can handle..I would go with the Dual 2-ohm subs that way u can have more power juicing the sub! Now if u decide to wire the sub in series: here is what the outcome is going to be Dual 2-ohm(SUBWOOFER)=4-ohm of resistance Dual 4-ohm(SUBWOOFER)=8ohm of resistance *Now as you can clearly tell, u see which will draw the most current to it! Best thing to do is check the stats on your amp.>Then decide what you want from your subs(WATTAGE WISE)..Then go wire them up* Hope I was helpful..If u need anymore help just let me know:D Blake [/QUOTE]
