Option 1 (parallel/parallel) = 0.5 ohm load

Voice coils wired in parallel, speakers wired in parallel

Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 1/2 ohm mono

Option 2 (series/parallel) = 2 ohm load

Voice coils wired in series, speakers wired in parallel

Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 2 or 1 ohm mono

Option 3 (series) = 8 ohm load

All voice coils wired in series

Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 4, 2, or 1 ohm mono

If you get a DMM(Digital Multi. Meter) you can put the leads on it and figure out what ohms it is. If it's dual two ohms each coil should read around 1.7-1.8 ohms.

You can wire a SINGLE dual two ohm subwoofer to 1 ohms. If you have TWO 2 ohm subwoofers, then the lowest would be 2 ohms.

Yes, it's possible with a SINGLE dual 2 ohm speaker.In your case the installer, told you he wired it to two ohms, because that is the lowest ohm(resistants) you can go with both speakers being wired to each other.

ook thank you patent 17 :D.....

but still dam guy i asked to wire it to 1 ohm.... and i mean it should have been possible....since the box has 2 terminals one for each speaker so i assume each speaker would be able to be wired to 1ohm soo i stll dont understand why he would tell me the lowest he can wire them is 2 ohm..:(

and if its not to much to ask...which http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_c...sp?Q=1&I=22 is it for a single sub thats DUAL 2 and which one is it on that same website for 2 speakers Dual 2

In that diagram the subwoofer they use is dual 2 ohms.

http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_c...sp?Q=2&I=22

In this diagram each subwoofer is dual 2 ohms.

I think you need to read up on Ohm's Law first to understand what people are trying to tell you.

Well, they can be wired down to that, just that most amps aren't stable that low. The ones that are stable that low, the warranty doesn't cover it.
