Dual Voice
How should I connect my dual Voice Coil 15" Sub Woofer?
I have two Image Dynamic 15" Sub Woofers . Should I wire it in series or in parallel to get the most out of the speaker and really let it hit?? Also should I bridge it to the amp or put each sub on it's own channel?

Wiring it in parallel will result in a 2ohm load (assuming your subs are 4ohm), wiring it in series will give you an 8ohm load. When you connect your subs together, if you have them in parallel, you will be running a 1ohm load to the amp. If youve done so in series, you will have a 4ohm load. A 1 ohm load will be MUCH louder than a 4ohm load, but will loose a little sound quality. Also, a lot of amps can't handle a 1 ohm load. If you need a 2ohm load, get 2ohm subs and wire them together, in series. Feel free to email me if you need help...
