Dual 1's aren't dual 1's

Recommended Posts

Just got my second BTL and its reading .05 on both.

The first one that came reads 1.0 Plan was to series parallel the 1's.

Send it back?

no its fine, after imp rise it'll be close to 1ohm anyway.

The other sub will rise also.

Dual 1 coils should read .6-.8 normally. You won't notice a difference when there is power applied.

it varies.

Dual 1s are between 0.6-0.9

Dual 2s i have seen be 1.2, 1.4, 1.5, 1.6, 1.8, 1.9

Dual 4s i have seen 2.8, 3.0, 3.2, 3.4, 3.6, 3.8, 3.9, 4.0, 4.2

On dual 1s, i have really only seen them be 0.6, 0.7 and 0.9

if ALL 4 coils, 2 per sub, are all reading in between 0.6-0.9 then you are ok.

Series each sub separately then parallel the connections. You should then get 0.7-0.8 ohms.

If you do, then you are all set!

Sorry Guys I'm getting .7 on each terminal each woofer. Battery was dying I think. I changed it out and rechecked everything.

Thanks for the insight, I appreciate it.
