impedance + SQ

[lakaiguy 0]

is there any relation?

ie. would two subs showing an impedance of 4 ohms have a better chance at SQ than two subs showing 1 ohm

Theoretically, it changes the damping factor of the system - which is the ratio of the amp's output impedance to the impedance of the load.

Most push/pull solid state amps have such low output impedances that lowering the load impedance doesn't do a whole lot to change DF.

The short answer? Don't worry about it.

it sounds like you're saying it is possible but it depends on the amp

which might suck for me cause i was thinking about getting the Hifonics BXi1606D and running it at 1 ohm

Damping Factor is a stupid spec anyways...

The driver design is what determines its cone control.
