[QUOTE="zako, post: 7976319, member: 629735"] First, shouldn't adding resistance increase (not decrease) the nominal impedance? Second, I believe this has already been discussed on some forum in the past. The resistor you need will not be cheap, which kind of erases the benefits. Personally, I would trade/sell the subwoofer for another one with 4ohm impedance, run the 8ohm subwoofer as is (after all, you just lose -3dB at peak), or add a second identical subwoofer, wire in parallel for 4ohm impedance.
