[QUOTE="Jimi77, post: 8842583, member: 673702"] I ran and fixed alot of Alpines - a freaking ton of Alpine decks, they were 4 ohm stable. It's easier/cheaper to make power in a smaller package using low impedance high current designs. Maybe they made 8 ohm amps especially for Volvo. If the amp was a 4 channel bridged on the rear channel(s), then that might explain using a resistor to bring up the load to a level the amp would be happy with. It doesn't matter what terminal the capacitor is wired to; I wire speakers out of phase all the time. It's AC voltage, not DC. [/QUOTE]
