Guys I Need Your Help!!

[Toady]

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

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.

You are using two subs, correct?

[Team_DC-Derrick]

1 or 2 subs?

if it says D2, its more than likely D2

that link will help you out so you can see it

Yes 2 subs, i thought they were dual 2, but parts express told me something completely different

[jagblazer01]

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.

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?

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.

Yeah i was gonna run them in series for 2 ohms. 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
