Bronze Member Username: TuloudPost Number: 11 Registered: May-07 | Yea I understand that. But could'nt I wire eack of the 2 ohm voice coils to the amp. Meaning, speaker wire from both the positive and negative terminals on the sub to both the positive and negative inputs on the amp. Wouldnt this result in a 2 ohm load since the amp has a pair of speaker input ran in parallel. Or is my only option to wire it in series. thanks |

Bronze Member Username: TuloudPost Number: 13 Registered: May-07 | Yes, yes thanks guys I am aware of this. What I'm trying to ask is. Since, the jl 500/1 has two sets of speaker inputs connected in parallel. Could I wire each of the voice coils into the amp separately. Meaning, can I connect one voice coil to one speaker input Then connect the other voice coil in the remaining speaker input on the amp. In series. + & - from one voice coil to + & - on the amp. Then the same with the other voice coil. Can this be done to create a 2 ohm load |
