Default Another audio question (sub)

Well I think I know the answer to this, just confirming. So if I have a 4 ohm DVC sub woofer, each coil is 4 ohms right? I'm almost positive this is correct. Each coil is 4 ohm so you can then run series at 8 ohms or parallel at 2 ohms. Just wanting to make sure before I go wiring anything up.

pretty much yes. I think 4 ohm is actually 3.6 or something usually this could also be bullshit that I remember through the booze induced haze that was high school.

You're confusing inductance with resistance.

If it's a dual 4 ohm voice coil then yes, you'll get 8 ohms total from running them in series or 2 ohms from running in parallel.
