This should help, as much as it helped me anyway, 1ohm is better from what I gather, then 2ohm then 4ohm

or try typing into google "define:OHM"

ohm are measurements of independence... but im sure all you want to know is:

the LOWER the ohm value, the "louder" the sub will be.
the HIGHER the ohm value, the less "stress" on the system.

Most quality amps are 1 ohm stable now, so you can wire a 2ohm DVC sub to put a 1ohm load on the amp...

okay thanks guys but how to you wire them 2 get 1ohm or 2??

[Martin]

you have to get either a 2ohm Dual Voice coil sub or a 4ohm dual voice coil sub

depending on how you wire these is what you get...
