Is this correct?

An amp doubles your wattage when u drop the omhs, but the subwoofer can take less wattage when run at an lower omhs. if there is a 1000 watt 4 ohm voice coil, then when wired to 2 ohms, it can take 500 omhs, when wired down to 1 ohm, it can only take 250 watts @ 1 ohm. A 500 rms wattage sub, with two 4 ohm voice coils, has : two 250 watt 4 ohm voice coils, when wired to 2 ohms, each coil can only handle 125 watts, when dropped to 1 ohm, each coil can only handle 62.5 watts.

correct or no? (I did not type that)

not all amps work that way. and the part about the sub is just not true at all.

eeeeeeee wrong, check the specs on the sub, most single voice coil subs are rated at 4 ohm

so is it the opposite? they can handle more power?

 

[tcguy85 10+ year member]

a sub will handle the same no matter how it is wired.
