Sub reading wrong Ohm's after parallel wiring


Recommended Posts

Posted

Duel 4ohm sub, both coils sit at 4ohm's but after I wire them in parallel its not sitting anywhere near the required 2ohms.

Is having it resting on 2.4ohms fine, or is something wrong?

take your meter set it to test impedence and touch your leads together. im willing to bet there is your difference.

Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born.

I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

Just tested it, it reads around 00.9. Which confuses me even more!

oh btw you should look into new leads or a new meter even thats a lot of resistance on the leads.

I did question this, the meter was quite cheap. Should I just expect this to be an issue with the multimeter and my sub is reading 2ohms correctly?

i dont think you have anything to worry about to be honest.

I noticed you have the sub upside down, is the coil being pushed in by the weight of the sub? If not dis regard

spl dust is an option you can get on the coils... it's great for extra 1000 watts of power
