what I have to look up his subs specs too to help him?

I have no clue what coils they have...

he said a 1 ohm sub... how does he know that for sure?

1 ohm is only possible with .5 or 2... either way he never answered... wanted to know what made him think it was a 1 ohm sub ( singular by his own words...)
