how do you find the ohms when combineing 3 subs to one amp?

how do you find the ohms when combineing subs of differnt ohms or can you even do that?

Check out http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/wiringwizard.asp? they have an excellent site for that. Idon't see why you couldnt hook up different impedances, but if you can I'd probably keep them the same.

If someone who knows a more like glasswolf or isaac says it's cool heres a site that has the formulas for figuring out what your impedance will be http://www.kpsec.freeuk.com/resistan.htm

if they say something like dual 4 ohm, that means the each coil produces a load of 4 ohms. if you wire them in series, the resistence add up, you'd get a total 8 ohm load, if you wire them in parallel (and sum them together) the resistence gets cut in half, a 2 ohm load.
