Quick Question On Wiring An Enclosure.

[etaks_crew]

So I now when you run your subs one after another the ohms drop or go up depending on how you wire them. What if you have a box with three separte chambers and three separte speaker terminals. If I run one set of wire from the amp and conect them to the 1st terminal then from the to the 2nd terminal and from there to the 3rd terminal. Would my ohms change or not. Seeing in that they are wired separte but off te same power?

Sorry if this is kinda of dumb/noobish question.

what kinda subs/coil configuration do your subs have (dual4 ohm?...dual2?..) and how many to you have? and what is your amp rated at 1 ohm (assuiming its one ohm stable, if not, then what is it rated at 2ohms?

No subs for this build yet. I have 2 brand new prefab( I know,I know, they were free )box's that house 3 12's each. My buddy's girlfriend just got a new car and we were gonna throw one in her car. We are looking at getting a kicker ZX750($125) and 3 P2's ($ 60-80 each.) And depending on if this will lower the ohms will depend on what style we get.

[zz_3.14_zz]

Well, the P2's come in dual 4 and dual 2 ohm. Which one you get will depend on how you wire them.

Dual 2ohm running at 1.34ohms

Dual 2ohm running at 3ohms

Dual 4ohm running at 2.67ohm

I know I know my paint skills suck. But you get the basic idea.
