You can't. Two 4 ohm speakers in parallel equal 2 ohms, and two in series equal 8 ohms. It is possible to wire four 4 ohm speakers so that the load is 4 ohms though. Put two in series (8 ohms). put the other two in series (8 ohms). Then put the two sets in parallel (two 8 ohm sets in parallel equal 4 ohms).

To turn a 4 ohm resistor into a 2 ohm resistor, you need two 4 ohm resistors. Connect them in parallel, and the effective resistance will be 2 ohms.

Correct way to hook up pioneer 12Ins sub woofer's champion series?

Depends if it is dual 4Ohm or dual 2Ohm and what Impedance your Amp supports. *If you amp can handle 1Ohm Load and you have a dual 2Ohm sub you can run the sub in parallel to get a 1Ohm load (parallel meaning both + are connected with each and same with both -) *If your amp can handle 2Ohm load and you have a dual 4Ohm sub you can run the sub in parallel to get a 2Ohm load. *If your amp supports a 4Ohm load and you have a dual 2Ohm sub you can run the sub in series to get a 4Ohm load. (series meaning the - from one coil is to be connected with the + on the other coil) Do not mix up Impedance's make sure you find out what your Subs Impedance is and what you Amps Impedance is

How do you wire a sub in a Saturn sc?

Connect the sub woofer to the equalizer or amplifier. The positive wire will need to be connected to a power source. Connect the ground wire. Connect the auxiliary wire to the amplifier.


Where do you wire the power cable in Corsa?

to wire it through a corsa, strip one end and connect to sub or amp, then the other end runs through the car. unscrew the glove box and wire it through thegrommet behind the battery under the bonnet to the positive terminal. Fuse connector half a meter down the wire does help the sub or amp to cope with the current and lessens the chance of blowing your sub


Bridge two subs to a four channel amp?

If you amp is bridgeable you run + sub wire to ch 1 + then the -sub wire to the - of ch 2 of the amp. The same with the other sub + ch3 - ch4 that's how to bridge your amp.


Will a 540 Watts x 1 RMS 4ohms Amplifier be suitable for a sub rated at 380 watt RMS with 4ohms plus 4ohms dual coil?

The problem you have there is that your sub woofer needs both coils wired and your options with that setup is either 2 ohms or 8 ohms depending on if you wire the sub itself in series or parallel. If you use a second sub like the first one and wire both subs in parallel and then wire the two subs in series you can achieve 4 ohms. You could also wire the subs in series ( 8 ohms each ) and then wire them in parallel to achieve the overall 4 ohms.


Which subwoofer can I replace for the 2001 Lexus gs300 is it 4ohm or 8ohm?

its a 6ohm sub in the stock location. if you are going to replace it you will need to purchase a good amp. the stock amp does not have adequate power to power any other sub. 10" Kicker comp subs make a great replacement, and get an amp that is half the RMS power input of the sub. make shure that you are reading the AMPs RMS power output.


How do you hook up your dual voice coil 4ohm sub to one channel on two channel amp?

If you want max power flow connect the coils in parallel. Positive from 1 post to positive on the other post and same for negative. Then chose one post and run the positive to the positive of one channel on the amplifier and the negative to the negative of the other channel. That is called bridging.


Where can you find a factory amplifier on a 1998 expedition Eddie Bauer?

as far as i know there is only one amp and it powers the sub woofer. it is located in back, in the panel beside the sub woofer. pull off the panel covering the sub and look up to the left of the sub and there is a little gray metal box and a wire going from it into the sub box. the little metal box is the amp.


Can you wire a 2 channel amp to a dvc sub using one channel per coil?

if the sub can handle it yes....say if u have a 2000 watt amp 2 channel and u have a 2000 watt DVC sub then it will work but wouldn't advise doing that for great sound qulity
