My friend is really stupid and for some reason bought one cvr with dual 4 ohm and the other with dual 2 ohm.

i told him he need to trade one of the subs for a different one.

he went to circuit city and they installed his system for him and they said it would be fine even though the subs have a different coil configuration.

so i went to listen to it and it dosnt sound bad. shouldn't it sound terrible with the subs each receiving different power and them being in a common chamber box.

well i dont think they would be receiving different power unless its going to a 2 channel amp it might give a strange impedance if mono like 3 ohm or something not to sure

It shouldn't be hard to return one sub and properly match them. Should be an easy swap. He bought the subs there also correct? Amp?

the amp is a visonik mono block. looks like a newer one not sure tho as i have never really kept up on my visonik products. i think its supposed to be like 500 or 1000 watts. its 60 amp fusing on the side i do remember that.
