Difference Between 4 Ohm And 2 Ohm Kicker L5 15" Sub


Recommended Posts

What is the difference? Is there a difference in loudness?

  • 2 12 inch dc Level 4s
  • DC 2.0k Amp
  • KCA 1/0 Power Amplifier Installation Kit
  • 220 Amp Alt
  • XS Power 12V D925 AGM Battery
  • Stinger Volt Gauge
  • Rockford Fosgate RCAs
  • Box built from birch. Probably tuned to 32 Hz
  • 0 gauge wiring for extra battery
  • Dynamat

well I was looking at amps and I realized that a 2 ohm gets more power to the sub than a four ohm. is that more unsafe

example, 2 subs dual 2ohm, would give you .5ohm load or 2ohm

2 subs dual 4ohm would give you 1ohm and 4ohm load

so you would need a amp that works with the ohm loads youre able to get from your subs

yeah the only difference id say there is, is that if your only getting one or if your getting a certain amount of them so you can make differnt loads for differnt amps and power handling capibilities.

And far as the best connection ever.......

get a huge fucking battery, cut the top off, drop an alt in there and then pour all that into your big amplifier. or just smelt them all together.
