[QUOTE="MiniVanMan, post: 2937848, member: 573252"] Because I'm overly sensitive (or my impedance is too high, and my coils are wound just a bit too tight) [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/hide.gif.2d479cfd917eedfe201353b91522ceab.gif[/IMG] This has been a good thread. Like I said, it's promoted critical thinking, and very much so on my part. Knowing something, and articulating it, in a manner that is understandable and correct can be difficult. Especially in a situation that has SOOOO many variables to begin with. I'm reluctant to use hard data, as it doesn't tell a whole story. I'm reluctant to use personal experience, because it may not apply. I'm reluctant to use personal opinion, because as with anybody your opinion does not dictate truth. So, basically, you're screwed. It also leaves the subject WIDE open for the perpetuation of myths, that are, in the end, extremely difficult to debunk. Generalizations become the rule, especially in a forum that leaves communication as an exercise in patience. However, I'm not reluctant to jump right in, and throw myself to the wolves. I guess the initial argument was that throwing more power into a 2 ohm load doesn't necessarily mean you'll get more output than a similar 4 ohm driver ran off of 100 watts. There are much cheaper options. Oh and the reference to impedance was based, once again, on an assumption due to the OP posting a driver with a 2 ohm coil. The OP never stated that, but if he didn't see that to begin with, it's definitely something he should be made aware of. [/QUOTE]
