| I'm all confused about this stuff. Thought I had it figured out. My boss was pumping some mess into my head and I need some clarification from you guys. I have two d2 subs. I have them coming off of a one channel amp. They are wired parallel (I think that's the correct term)--there's a jumper wire connecting the two sides of the speaker. What ohm do I have them wired at? | |

| oh wait, some clarification, and something important I neglected to mention--I have two sets of speaker wires coming off of that one channel--one going to each speaker. | |

| You can depends on how the amp takes it and if you plan on going with the amp you said in the pm shouldnt be a problem just get rid of those 15s and go with some L5 12s! | |

| man, you've pretty much got me convinced. I have a different window open at the moment and am looking for 4 12s. Daryal has 4 of em to get rid of, but they're L7s. And that amp I told you about is the one I'm planning on going with. | |

| I'm about to post an ad up to trade the L7 15s for 4 L5 12s. Was really wanting to keep the 15s to put em in the Xb, but I can't drive both vehicles to comps, and well....I told you about the budget thing. | |

| The avatar's derivitive is a secret, although I can tell you that there are similar "blessed" beauties on a site called www.bootyvote.com The site's not safe for work, though, as most of the girls there tend to think that for them to get a good vote they have to be completely naked. Kinda ruins all the fun. | |

| He said there is A jumper tying the two sides together ... if there is A wire that leads me to believe they are actually wired in series. | |
