I had been told before that subs in series was not a good idea; voice coils ok, subs no.

I came across somethin at the JL site that states the same thing:

http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/index.html

It says, "Please note that when wiring multiple drivers, whether DVC drivers or their SVC brethren, it is recommended that series connections between drivers be avoided at all costs."

Just wondering if any of you car audio gurus had a good explanation for this. I've seen plenty of diagrams(e.g. old Soundstream manuals) that had plenty of series wired woofer diagrams.

Whats the deal?

Talk techie if you'd like.
