Just learning the laws of ohm. could someone tell me the best configuration to bring it down?? the subs are all 4 ohm single voice coil. Thanks!

chill phil Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 wire all the pos to pos terminal and all the neg to neg terminal this wil give you an ohm load of 1.3 the lowest possible with those subs Quote 2007 Nissan Xterra SE Amp: Sub: Box: Electrical: TL Scores: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melonhead Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 Looks like that setup will work. You can go to Rockford Fosgate's website in the future. They have some great tools that will calculate everything for you. http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

raytard Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 search google for ohm's law its 4th grade math, and something they teach in highschool, but noone learns anything in school anymore besides how many grams are in an ounce Quote Build: http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/ind...hl=avalon+build monster/rockford/kicker/stinger cables, pioneer source, jbl highs/amps, kinetik/shuriken batts, iraggi alt, dei security, dc subs(atleast for now) Team DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicholas.ivanov Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 I wish they tought it in high school... i would ave taken it... now when you go to college you have to take "Intro to electrical engineering" where you learn all that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neel Posted October 12, 2009 Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 I learned it in physics when i was in in high school along with faraday's law , coulomb's law .. etc... Car audio is pretty much the most basic you can get with this stuff. Quote Too Much Stuff to list . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turkboy Posted October 13, 2009 Report Share Posted October 13, 2009 search google for ohm's lawits 4th grade math, and something they teach in highschool, but noone learns anything in school anymore besides how many grams are in an ounce Google is a great resource however i don't recall EVER learning ohms law in 4th grade also in high school you need to learn biology and chemistry before physics (which ohms law falls under) I may be wrong about the physics thing because i was so upset with the high school teaching at such a ridiculous reading level even advanced classes!!! i just dropped out. I'm in homeschooling now learning at my own level and next year I'm headed over to Daytona Beach for II(Installer Institute) to learn ohms law from people who use it and calculate it everyday! Seriously though I'm 18 and I've learned more from google about algebra and English than any teacher i've had since pre-k. Parents homeschool your kids. Seriously Quote Drop a BTL on his head i think DC lvl 2's beat the infamous jackhammer... The formulas that you used to predict this enclosure's behavior can't predict turbulence since turbulence is, by definition, chaotic. You can't predict chaos.
