Ok so i bought 2 of these off a guy that got a whole shipment from jacob. He reconed them and sold them. My concern is i asked them to be dual 2 but when i put them on a DMM i get 1.5 per coill. Both subs are like that. My question is do the D2s have that low of impedance or did i get D1.5s

Edited by DSKtim

You measured the direct current resistance, not impedance.

You have D2 ohm coils.

Yeah, my AA Chaos was a D2 but the coils where actually 1.5.

ok thank you so how do i measure the impedance verse resistance and how would i wire them

Edited by DSKtim

You don't measure nominal impedance with a DMM :)

For the purpose of wiring to your amp assume they are 2 ohms per coil.

And yes, they are 1.5 DCR -- your DMM is reading spot on.
