[QUOTE="PowerNaudio, post: 2079908, member: 561215"] ther reason i made that statemet, is becuause if your runing two single VC subs, rated @4hms each, conected in parallel to bring the amp load to 2ohms. if one of the subs VC just opens. then the amp wouldnt see a 2ohms load any longer it would only see the 4ohms load from the good speaker. not all speakers that malfuction die the same way. some the tinsel leads go out . then it wouldnt realy make any noise. but any ways the amp is only seeing a 4ohm load and only sending the sub. half the amount of power. i know, i know the sub was only seen, half the amount of power to start with since they were sharing the same source. but i was just making it clear. it would send less power but the same amount of power to the individual sub. but over all less power since your runing one sub at a higher load then 2 subs at a lower load. "sorry if i confuced any one!" i had had some random person come by to see if i can help them out with thier system because its not as loud as it used to be. well i check the system and, what do you know the sub was dead. and he didnt even know. it he drove like that for like 2 weeks before he went to a shop and have some one troubleshoot it. his enclosure dual subs ingel port shared chamber. but connected in parallel to the amp.there was absolutly no sound comming from the other sub. the same thing happend to a close friend. tinsel leds went out, no noise wat so ever. and when you look at the sub he would swear that the other sub was playing too. lol. the movement from one sub was pushing the other sub back and forth. lol correctme if im wrong "im still learning" laters [/QUOTE]
