[QUOTE="Bun-Bun, post: 4815953, member: 584852"] That makes no sense... the voltage to each driver will change depending on how it is wired.... I havent been only changing one variable... I have been changing variables appropriate to the situation. ohm's law I=V/R and W=IV. Therefore 10V at 10A is 100W while 20V at 5A is 100W. two different wirings coming to the same power. Now P=I^2 * R will be less given the 20v 5A scenario meaning more power gets to the destination then the 10v 10A situation. I know this true because this is how they do it for our mains power! They run mains power at a higher voltage for less power loss accross all of our power lines and then have transformers near our homes that step it down to 220 2 phase (110 single phase) for use in our homes. Thus less current through coils would equate to less power loss to heat. So in the situation I described this is true. 2 x 4ohm subs wired in parallel to 200w would be 20v 10A total or 20v and 5A per coil. 2 x 1ohm subs wired in series would be 20V 10A total, 10V 10A per coil. EDIT: wait I think I just noticed what you were saying... EDIT2: Yup I did. The power loss in both of those wiring scenario's is 100W. [/QUOTE]
