can some one explain this to me?

[rasic]

Voice coils wired in series, speakers wired in parallel

does that mean its still in parallel? or will the power be like it is in series

[Skullz]

Series, better way to do it would be speaker terminals in parallel and wires in series.

EDIT: You have it both ways, one in series and one in parallel.

So if you have D4's you have a 4ohm load wired now.

What ohm are the speakers and what ohm load are you trying to get to?

Series will double the ohm load and parallel will halve it.

always series first.

[rasic]

well im getting another icon d2, and i want a 2 ohm load

[Boon]

Series up the coils then parallel the subs.

More motor force, marginally

[moetpoppin]

yeah hook up the VCs in series and then make the speakers parallel

RF has some good idiot proof wiring diagrams

even tho i can figure it out on my own now, i always end up checking that wiring wizard haha

so how does this effect the power, say i have 1 amp thats 1500 at 2 ohms, does that mean each sub is getting 1500 watts or is it split between the two?

its split

[rasic]

thank you, who thinks it would be easier to get 2 amps and run both of them 1 ohm to each sub?
