[QUOTE="ewalberg, post: 565844, member: 556048"] and no i can't draw it right now because i don't want to spend the time, but someone can, or read a highschool physics book. 1. group 4 speakers together and wire them in parallel by connencting all the positive leads together, and by grouping all the negatives together. 2. you've now got 4 groups. Each group totals 1 ohm if you wired it into an amp, if you wired the 4 positives into the amp positive and 4 neg's into the amp neg. 3. Now wire the 4 groups in parallel. Stick one negative group of wires into the negative on your amp. Then take the positive wires and go down the line with the other groups and connect that positive group to a negative group. Not individually, but all together... like a friggin bouquet 4. now you have a chain of 4 groups, the chain starts with the 4 negatives pluged negative terminal in your amp (from group 1), and your sitting there at the end of the chain with 4 positives in your hand from the last group. Guess where they go!!... in the positive terminal. you've added up those 4 single ohm groups to get 4 ohms total. that's probably only one way of more that can do it. but my time is expired. merry christmas.
