[QUOTE="PowerNaudio, post: 1180184, member: 561215"] test them? like to see if they work?. or just to see how they sound in free air or in a box?. if you have an amplified receiver or a boombox with the separate speaker boxes or an car amp hock up to a 12v power supply. if its just to see if the coil is OK?, use a multimeter. you can hock it up to a wall socket if using a: 120v to 12v 4amp transformer, if using a 4ohms sub= about 35wrms, or 120v to 12v 6amp for a 2ohms sub= 75wrms or go with a higher secondary voltage for more power but don't go pass 35v at 2ohms if your sub cant handle 600+watts. oh youll be playing a ruff 60hz. Disclaimer: research this more in depth before trying it, i will not be held responsible for any damage occurring from trying this. [/QUOTE]
