Mystery subwoofer ....

I have an 18" FI Audio Btl with what looks like a DC audio recone which is supposed to be dual 2 ohm but Everytime I check the impedance I am getting 2.8 per coil and 1.6 in parallel... DC doesn't make dual 3 ohm and neither does FI. So how is it that I have a FI motor, DC dustcap, and maybe a JL recone maybe? Lol.. anybody have any ideas? Or are these readings possible for a dvc2 ohm??

 
I am getting a .4 reading from my dmm but still I feel like that's odd because I've checked other speakers and gotten usually lower the resistance of the sub... Like a raging of 1.8 or 1.9 for a 2 ohm sub not 2.8

 
I use D2.7 coils. It is probably not an OEM coil but that's not terribly unusual DCR. 4 subs coils parallel make .7 ohm which gets you a bit more power than 1 ohm and is a bit easier on amps than .5

Run that into a 2 ohm stable amp or two 1 ohm stable amps strapped and it's a good match. That is NOT a great impedance for running single sub for most applications though.

You probably did it already, but post this to 350z specific forums or facebook groups, etc. There's probably someone there that knows.
