To raise it from 1ohm to 2ohm final load?

Another sub.

Another sub.

Indeed.

The "something" that you wire in... all it will do is consume power. :fyi:

nG

The only reason I'd see for adding resistors to voice coil wiring is to change Qts...but that's just on one coil and not both.

What do you mean ngsm?

the only way you increase the load is to add another rezistor. and rezistors consume power. you'd need a very good rezistor to be able to handle power levels subs receive.

the power will split between that "something" you add and the sub. you won't gain anything.

The one chance you have is finding a load-matching transformer that will handle the kind of power you're running and that has a high enough inductance value that having it wired in parallel won't act like a HPF right through the passband of your sub and that also won't "ring" on the output. I don't think you'll find one because I don't think that one exists. Sounds like you're going to either need a different sub, a different amp or rewire the current sub to 4 ohms and deal with the drop in amp output compared to 2 ohms.

What sub and amp are we currently talking about?

i've got a load matching transformer...it's 4 ohm and good for 120 watts or so, lol. matter of fact, i believe i have two.

i dunno why.
