[QUOTE="m98bigshot, post: 1504560, member: 565691"] I've had my Type-R sub for about 2 months now, and I had it professionally installed. It was in a sealed box, and I took it out b/c I built a ported box. Looking at how it was wired confused me beyond belief. I thought I had a grasp on what was going on, but now the Alpine guide seems to be backwards. They have a DVC 4ohm sub wired at either 8ohm or 2ohm in their guide. So here's my problem. This is how it was wired when it came out of the sealed box: ^ + || - + || - Yeah, its basic, but thats how it is. The arrow represents the wires. There's no jumper or anything, so this leads me to believe only one voice coil is hooked up? It sounded fine to me. I just want to get this straight before I put it back together.
