[QUOTE="ccwatson160, post: 8802441, member: 686390"] I am using a multimeter to tune my amp to match the sub using a 55hz test tone at 75% max volume. I understand the Ohm's Law calculations for what output reading I need but I'm confused what numbers I should use to calculate with. I have my dual voice coil sub wired in parallel to give me 1Ω but I don't have the number or fully understand how to figure out the impedance for a dual voice coil sub. My question is using the information below what number should my multimeter read when I adjust the gain for this particular setup. Thank you! Amp: Pioneer GM-D8701 (1Ω Stable) Maximum Output 600W (4Ω) 1600W (1Ω) Nominal Output 800W (1Ω) 500W (2Ω) 300W (4Ω) Sub: Pioneer TS-D12D2 Maximum Output 2000W Nominal Output 600W Nominal Impedance 2Ω DVC [/QUOTE]
