#8699, "RE: Enclosure Question! Math Involved.. Is This Correct?" In response to In response to 9
you RISK damage by only wiring one voice coil (VC) to the amp, as your original drawig illustrated. the risk of it is about %.00001 though, lol. no need to worry.
in the drawing i showed you its wired as such: each sub has its VCs wired in series. this doubles the impedence (so if there are two 4ohm coils, they "combine" to make an 8ohm total impedence). then the two subs are wired together in parallel this cuts the impedence in half (so the two subs which are now 8ohms "combine" to produce a total 4ohm load from all 4 VCs.
the math works the same for other combinations as well. if each of the subs has two 2ohm coils, then sieries coils=4ohms per sub, parallel wiring of subs=2ohms total resistance.
