[QUOTE="x1le, post: 6668984, member: 596028"] you are correct. an amplifier will put out power depending on the ohm load. The way you calculate resistance, or ohms, is if it's wired in series or parallel. An easy way to remember it is like this. Series is running + terminal to a - terminal. When wiring in series, the resistance is doubled. Parallel is running the + of a terminal to the + of another terminal, and - to a -. When wiring in parallel, resistance is divided by 2. So for instance. If you have 2 subs that are 4 ohm single voice coil, wired in series they would present an 8 ohm load, and parallel and 2 ohm load. It's all dependent on the subs. A dual voice coil 1 ohm sub can be wired in parallel to present a .5 load. You can also mix series with parallel. So say you have 4 subs that are 4 ohm svc(single voice coil), you can wire 2 pairs in series, so each pair would be 8 ohms, then wire those pairs in parallel to present the original 4 ohm load. Idk if I'm confusing you, but I feel like I'm rambling ha. take a look at this site - [URL="http://www.bcae1.com/"]http://www.bcae1.com/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
