Stupid question?

Anonymous	Posted on Sunday, January 02, 2005 - 05:43 GMT for an amp... is a dual 2-ohm impedance the same as 4-ohm impedance on a sub???? an amp puttin out 800 watts rms @ 4-ohm and 600 watts rms @ 2-ohm ... would the sub be gettin 800 or 600 watts rms???

sublime420 Unregistered guest	Posted on Sunday, January 02, 2005 - 05:57 GMT dual 2 ohm voice coils can be wired to 4 ohms or 1 ohm.
