Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, OR U.S. Post Number: 2598 Registered: Oct-05 | if they are dual voice coil, then no, you can wire two 4 ohm subs to a 2 ohm load. it cannot be done. you need to wire to a 1 or 4 ohm load play around with this seriously, its a great tool. http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp |
