How to wire your sub?


 Share

Recommended Posts

I was wondering how to hook up a sub if you have one or two voice coils, and how it affects the impedance, which of course determines what kind of amp you should be looking for.

 

This website shows you the various wiring options and the effect on the impedance the amp sees:

 

This is the 1sub 4ohm 2 voice coil model:

You can play with the options and see what suits you best.

First configuration reduces the impedance to 2 ohms. Make sure your amplifier can take a 2 ohmn load. This is all about installing in series or parallel.
