[QUOTE="i2ain2thunder, post: 7363318, member: 631331"] When wiring just one voicecoil (pretty much all speakers only have one voice coil output) it is easy if the speaker says it is 4 ohm than thats what it will be at the amp. When wiring multiple speakers or voicecoils together. IE you are wiring 2 speakers together (so you can use the same channel on the amp for both speakers) that are each 4 ohms you can wire them in parallel or in series. If you wire them in parallel the resistance of both speakers is devided in half so they will be at 2ohms together. If you wire them in series they will add to eachothers resistane and both speakers will be wired at 8ohms together. [/QUOTE]
