[QUOTE="squeak9798, post: 5948247, member: 555320"] It would be more "ideal" to wire each sub's coils in series and then wire the two subs in parallel. Wiring the subs to each other in series leaves the [I]possibility[/I] of the subs modulating each other. I consider this more of a theoretical problem than a practical problem though as I've never seen any actual measurements or studies to determine the actual audibility of this issue, and I've never heard anyone complain about it actually audibly affecting their systems performance in practice. So I don't have a problem suggesting wiring subs in series if it's necessary. But if you can avoid it, you might as well as it won't hurt anything to just wire the subs together in parallel rather than series and circumvent the entire issue. No Technically yes. When wired in series Bl doubles, Re quadruples, and Le quadruples compared to wired in parallel. But since the [I]ratios[/I] of these parameters stays the same, the Qes & Qts of the driver does not change (neither does Re/Le) ...... so the actual performance is unchanged. Are these front/rear speakers? Or two front left and two front right? Or...? [/QUOTE]
