[QUOTE="sam_b03, post: 8581100, member: 607518"] I'm have a 15 jeep grand Cherokee w/ 9 ch alpine system. I have replaced the fronts and pretty happy with factory power. I want more from the sub. Factory is 250w at 2ohm with a 8in sub in about .6cubes. I have an old idq12 v2 rated for 300w that should be fine with an 88db efficiency to be fiberglassed in to the factory box. Problem is the factory wiring is 2 leads per voice coil. My speaker dual 4 ohm. Is there a way I can wire it up to get 2ohms without frying the factory amp? I know about the parallel or series wiring to change the load, but idont know if it's safe with the factory wiring. Not sure if the voice could are getting power from same source or if each lead is powering the vc independently. [/QUOTE]
