you can achieve this with 2 SVC subs that are 2 ohms each. wire them in parralell and get a 1 ohm load.
2 DVC 4ohm subs wired in parraellel
1 DVC 2 ohm sub wired in parralell |

Working with even numbers here (2, 4, 6, 8)
if you have two 2 ohm coils, then those can be combined to make either 1 or 4 ohms
If your subs are dual 4 ohm coils, then its impossible to get 1 ohm load.
It really is not practical to explain such a thing to you because there are so many different option working with mono, stereo, DVC, and different impendances. So give us your set up and well tell you if u can get a 1 ohm load.
For the record
If you have two 4 ohm coils then they can be combined to be either 2 or 8 ohms (series wiring VS parallel) A coil is a coil, it does not matter if the Sub is DVC or not, every coil shall be treated the same when being wired in the same circuit. 6 ohm speakers make 3 or 12 ohms. Parallel wiring (basically piggy backing the connections to hook up 2 subs) will lower the ohms, series wiring is a lil more complicated, but not too hard just look it up and youll see plenty of diagrams. |
