Dual Voice Coil Subs...

[Inarticulate]

Can someone explain how to wire them?

The amp I want is 200 watts RMS @ 4ohms (single channel). I decided to go with 1 Kicker Dual Voice Coil sub, but I don't know which one to get. The one with dual 2ohm coils, or dual 4 ohm coils? Both subs are rated 200 watts RMS, so I figured one of them would be ideal for the 4ohm amp.

Check out that link for figuring out the wiring you will be doing using the subwoofer(s) you are looking at.

dual 2 ohm coils can be wired to a single 4 ohm load ( or 1 ohm)

Dual 4 ohm coils can be wired to a single 2 ohm load ( or 8 ohm).

If you want 200 w RMS get a dual 2 ohm and wire it to 4
