i am the other installer in the mentioned shop. i have used only 1 4 ohm coil on DVCs for years with no ill effects. why is this not considered a proper method. from my understanding that is the whole point of having a DVC. you can go either 4, 8, or 2 ohm loads depending on the wiring. what is the downfall of using only one voice coil? and if i am wrong then i am the luckiest man alive because i have never had a setup come back broken for such an improper connection. everyone needs to take me to the casinos LOL! seriously, i would like to know if i've been wrong all these years.

thanks

well i was simply doing research,

since i was getting no knowledge from here when i checked.

so i looked else where and posted info here.

did i say that was the answer? no

i was seeing people's input on that info i found.

idk if it's true or not. for all i know that guy could be half retarded...

i forget where i heard it at, i think it was a video talking about resonant frequency, but you can wire up a DVC to only 1 coil, of course you sacrifice some of its power handling when you wire it up like that.

What the f**k is an appropriate signature supposed to look like?
