Ok..so I am finishing up my Very first Subwoofer enclosure & wiring up Subs. I have SUNDOWN AUDIO E 15 v4 DVC subs. I am looking for a 1Ohm final impedance. So I wired them up according to a diagram that I found on Google. I threw a DMM on them and it reads 0.7. I realize that DMMs will fluctuate and so on, but 0.7 is closer to .5 Ohm than it is to 1 Ohm. I'm curious if this is ok or am I doing something wrong?

if this is ok

Yes, it is normal. Impedance usually rises when subs are in use.

Google ***** use 12volt they have wiring diagrams for all sorts of stuff along with ohms calculators and what not. Just pick how many subwoofers and the DVC they are i.e dual 4 ohm or dual 1 ohm and it will tell you how to wire it and what other ohm options there are.

Yea. I literally spent 2 hours perusing the site. Got to love a helpful website. I bet that they have thought of everything that could possibly come up doing car audio. I love it
