question on wiring 4 dual voice coils to 1ohm


Recommended Posts

okay, i need some help...

im not exactly sure if this is possible...

so bare with me

i have 2 12" type r's...4ohms

wired to a 1ohm load...

i would like to install 2 more of these...all in a bigger box...

but i would like to keep the 1ohm load

since these are dual voice coil 4ohm subs, idk if thats possible

my amp is a rf t1500

heres a diagram i threw up just to show what i would like to do...if its even possible

remember, i still want a 1ohm load for 4 subs

HELP!

Well if your amp can give enough power to them all @2ohms then go ahead or just buy a bigger amp or another option is a second amp
