Bronze Member Username: Bies08Wheaton, Kansas Post Number: 62 Registered: Dec-05 | So i have 2 total subwoofers(total mobile audio)...anyways..i sent one in because the tensil wire came loose. They sent me a Brand new total sub. The thing is..the old ones were Single Voice coil...and the new on is Dual voice coil. The guy at the store told me to wire them at a 4 ohm load. But the thing is....the way he explained it..is that you have to have 2 dual voice coil subwoofers. SOOO i dont know how to wire....I NEED HELP! |

So i've come to the conclusion that its my amp rihgt? but what happend??did i clip it too much and its not sending enough watts to it???i wanan just restart sell all my stuff and get all new kickers..or some diamond audio..but i wanan fix this right now! so what would i ahve to do to fix it ..and why is it doin this? |
