mikey33 Posted July 6, 2010 Report Posted July 6, 2010 I have a 4 ohm single voice coil subwoofer and I am wondering if it's possible to wire it down to 2 ohms by itself. I'm new to the car audio game. Thanks for any help.

finkster Posted July 6, 2010 Report Posted July 6, 2010 No you cant. sorry man. You can either get a stronger amp at 4 ohms, or get a new sub that is 2 ohms. DAT 4125------>RE XXX comps active Eclipse cd7000 I serve drunks for a living

Thanks for any help. no unless you buy a dual voice coil sub, then you could, but you're out of luck, purchase a strong 4 ohm amp, or a bridgeable amp that can run in 4 ohm stereo for more power to the sub and there are plenty of them out there. Do you have an amp already ? if so what kind??
GioRF Posted July 6, 2010 Report Posted July 6, 2010 Another option could be buying another 4ohm single coil sub and wire both subs in parallel to get a 2ohm load.
