[m3n4ce 0]

so im back, still trying to understand this whole audio thing lol. havnt had much time to look into it but i had an ohm question i thought i might be able to get a easy to understand answer of...

basicly from what ive been reading and such, unless im mistaken which is why im asking here, a 1 ohm amp goes to a 2 ohm sub and a 2 ohm amp will go to a 4 ohm sub?

and is there some sort of converter that allows you to go 1 ohm to converter to a 4 ohm sub? or have i just confused everyone and should keep reading lol?

No. There are many ways to wire subwoofers. But I'll shorten it in a summary.

IF you buy a DUAL Voice Coil 1ohm. You can only have a final load of .5 or 2 ohms.

IF you buy a DUAL Voice Coil 2ohm. You can only have a final load of 1 or 4 ohms.

Here is an easy converter so you don't have to think anymore

There isn't a 1ohm diagram but just apply it just like you see here
