[QUOTE="anger, post: 8163199, member: 643714"] After a short drive today, I felt like I was missing some power n thump that used to be there. So I've got 4 8ohm subs wired in parallel for a 2ohm final impedance. My DMM is reading an impedance of 3ohm at the box terminal. I'm wondering if this is normal before I open up the box....again. I found this diagram ( [URL="http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/3_subs_SVC_8_ohm_mono.jpg"]http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/3_subs_SVC_8_ohm_mono.jpg[/URL] ) which makes me think one of the subs got disconnected or isn't working, because 3 of my subs wired in parallel would have an impedance of 2.7ohm (close to what my DMM is reading). Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
