Toady Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Ok I called Parts Express Tc Sounds Dealer and asked questions about the LMS-R it says on the sheet DVC 2 Ohms per coil. So i asked him does the LMS-R come in DVC 4ohm So i could wire it down to a 1 ohm load. He says that "Impedance: 2 ohms per coil x 2 • RE: 3.96 ohms" is really 4 ohms per coil which is a DVC, which means that you could wire in parallel for a 2 Ohm load, or series for a 8 ohm load?? I looked at this page and listened to him and now im confused as fawk. What is the impedance of this sub, i thought i knew but i have no idea.... Here is the page with information http://www.parts-express.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?Partnumber=293-658 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagblazer01 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 if its a D2 then you parallel it down to 1 ohm..thats the way Im reading it Quote Team Sundown Audio / Team XS Power / Team SHOK SMD Super Buyer/Sellerwww.sundownaudio.com www.shokindustries.com www.4xspower.com www.excessiveamperage.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toady Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) if its a D2 then you parallel it down to 1 ohm..thats the way Im reading it If its a DVC 2ohm i parallel it down to .5 ohms I have never been this confused over an impedance.

BigPimpin91 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 If its a DVC 2ohm i parallel it down to .5 ohms I have never been this confused over an impedance. You are using two subs, correct? Quote BigPimpin91's Banging Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team_DC-Derrick Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) 1 or 2 subs? http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp if it says D2, its more than likely D2 that link will help you out so you can see it Edited September 7, 2010 by Team_DC-Derrick Quote The DC Integra 3 18s to 6 15 build log Team_DC-Derrick's Youtube Team DC Audio where theres a will theres a wall.......

Toady Posted September 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 You are using two subs, correct? Yes 2 subs, i thought they were dual 2, but parts express told me something completely different Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagblazer01 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 oo well i didnt realize you were running 2 woofers. then yes you are correct you would get a final of .5 if you parallel them all down.

AA98hoe Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 (edited) two d2s wired in parrallel would be .5. tmo d2s wired in series would be 2ohms. what the man was trying to say is actual impedeance of woofer will read different. with meter. what amp do you plan on using?

BigPimpin91 Posted September 7, 2010 Report Share Posted September 7, 2010 Yes 2 subs, i thought they were dual 2, but parts express told me something completely different The Re* means both coils in series. You have either a 1Ω load or a 4Ω per sub So D2's is either 0.5Ω, 2Ω or 8Ω for the pair. Quote BigPimpin91's Banging Music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i'm really wanting to run two dvc 4ohms in parallel for 1 ohm load. I Was trying to ask him if they made them, but he told me i was looking at dvc 4 ohms. but they said dvc 2 ohms per coil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
