Does This Sub Need A Recone?

Alright, it's not mine but I would still like to know. The sub is wired in parallel (i belive) to .7 ohm, it's a dual 1.4 ohm. It has been sent a clipped signal but not for very long/ not with too much power but a decent amount say 500-1000 watts. It reads off .9 ohm off a dmm, where as originally it was .7 ohm. Does it need a recone? or is it not going to be much of a problem?

Did you actually measure it as reading 0.7 originally or did you just assume that's what it was?

If I read my Dual 1.5's (in parallel) with my crappy multimeter I get 1.1 ohms...

dual 1.4 is essentially a dual 2 ohm coil. Your .7 ohm is essentially a 1 ohm final load. I think you should be just fine.

Yeah, I remember you saying that, but I wasn't sure if it would affect the final load.

I got .7 the first time I tested it for him. But IDK I will go out and test it later today after school, It was kinda weird when I was testing it, I can't explain it but it seemed like it was just reading at a different setting than I thought it used to.
