alright so ive been trying to figure this out but im not sure and id like some second opinions just to clarify.

so im trying to get down to a 1 ohm load with 2 subs. I was looking at getting the 15" havocs from Ascedent Audio and they are only dual 2 ohm coils and when i went to the rockford fosgate website to use their wiring wizard it said i could only get a .5,2, or 8 ohm load.

now i was thinking, if i wire both subs up in parallel and have give them there own terminals on the box, can i bridge the terminal to make a 1 ohm load.

these are both dual 2 ohm vc subs, so shouldnt this give me a 1 ohm load going into the amp?

Adding terminals does nothing to change your OHM load. You can get a .5, 2, or 8 OHM load from those subs, just like the website said.

Yeah, thats the thing that sucks about getting a pair of havocs, you cant get a 1 ohm load on both of them. You'd have to buy an amp thats 2 ohm stable and puts out enough power @ 2 ohms. 2000w @ 2 ohms would be perfect for a pair of them

could always just beef up your electrical enough to sustain an amp that will do that power at .5 ohm

i ran my sundown saz 2000 at .5 ohms daily for almost a year, had no problems at all
