Is it possible to wire a dvc 4 ohm to run at 4ohm...

[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 553427, member: 555320"] Well, you could wire the voice coils in series (for an 8ohm load) then wire an 8ohm resistor in parallel for a 4ohm load, but it would be rather pointless since the resistor would waste half the power in heat, so the subs would effectively still only get the 8ohm power of the amp. And those roadmaster boxes you are talking about are probably using a capacitor in line with the horn to create a 6db/oct highpass filter for the horn, not a resistor [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
