What's the difference

Ok. In the following two examples, the final load is the same. So, in a sealed enclosure, same model sub, what's going to be the difference?

Specifically, I have a JL Audio Stealthbox. I'll be putting in the intended 10w3v3. Just trying to decide whether I want to buy a 4ohm SVC sub, a 2ohm DVC sub, or even a 6ohm DVC sub to get a final load of 3ohms since that's what their site says it's loaded with if you buy one already done.

depends on your amp

Amp is in this sig. Here's the link to it's specs. I plan to bridge the two sub channels for a single 300watt sub.

do you plan on always running 1 sub? I would get the Dual Voice coil myself but in your case it really does not make a diff.

The single four ohm can only be wired to 4 ohms and the dual 2 ohm allows you to wire it down to one ohm if you decide to get a new amplifier in the future. Other than that they should be the same performance wise.

Yeah. I don't see changing from one sub. This is an extended cab pickup (`03 GMC Sierra) and I'm just trying to put together a good sounding system. Nothing huge. Just a daily driver.

I'm just wondering if there's any sound difference particularly between a 4ohm SVC and 2 ohm DVC setup.

Thanks for the info mokedaddy. That's basically what I was guessing but wanted to make sure.
