Bronze Member Username: RicezPost Number: 25 Registered: Aug-07 | Hey everyone, I have a Kicker L5 15", I am wondering if it is best to put the impedances in serial or parallel since the woofer has dual voice coil (each 2ohm). I know that the less the more ohms, the better. But what is recommended for a Boss GT1500D amp? Thank you. |

Bronze Member Username: RicezPost Number: 28 Registered: Aug-07 | My Kicker L5 15" is 2 ohms, so in parallel it is 1 ohm and series is 4ohm. |

Silver Member Username: Cplaya280Quakertown, PA USA Post Number: 660 Registered: Oct-05 | it would have been better if you got the 4ohm version because the amp your going to power it is not 1ohm stable so you wont get alot of power out of it from the sub. |

Bronze Member Username: RicezPost Number: 30 Registered: Aug-07 | Thats too expensive for my taste. Any recommendations between $100 to $200. I thought I saw a Hi-fonics one the other day. |
