no, if you wire them all paralell you will get a 1 ohm load

there is a section on www.bcae1.com to figure this out

im not quite sure there is a good way to wire them like that...........

try this calculator

6=6=6 in parallel is 6/3 for resistance or impedance. trust me, it's 2 ohms.

the only way you'd get 1 ohm, now that I think about it, is if your amp is 2 channels, and bridged.
then you'd see 1 ohm.
