Your sure he said parallel to achieve a 2 ohm load? Doesn't sound right to me, DJ got D1 and D2 coils, he can't parallel either of those to a 2 ohm load. Wire it in series, like the picture above shows. Take a multimeter and check the + and - of each coil to make sure its dual 1 ohm. It wont be exactly 1 ohm but roughly. |
