My buddies got 2 12" Audiobahns that were gonna hook up today. They are Dual 4 ohm voice coils, can any one explain how to hook these up, or give me a link with pictures explaining the procedure. Thanks.

if your amp is 1 ohm stable, then wire option #1 will work. if the amp isnt, you will have to use wiring option #2.

he wont be able to power the subs then. amps at 4 ohms do 1/3 as much power as they would at 1 ohms. for dual 4 ohm subs, your amp needs to be 1 ohm stable.

if his amp is 200 rms at 4 ohms, then it would be 400rms at 2 ohms, and 800rms at 1 ohm. The bad thing is his subs can only be wired to 4 or 1 ohm, not 2.

alright, im done talking now.
