***Tech Time*** at Sundown Audio Series vs Parallel Subwoofer Wiring

@1:30 I said parallel and meant series. Not redoing the entire video because of one misspoken word. Forgive me.

    So I'm pretty good at wiring but the system I'm getting ready to put in is driving me crazy. Got a boston acoustic G312-44 dual 4ohm but only has 1 set of posts and you move fuses around to either get a 2 or 8 ohm load and going to a 2 channel monoblock JL Amp but I thought you couldn't bridge monoblocks. So should I eliminate all the fuses and run 2 wires out each post to the. + + _ _ on the Amp? Someone confirm if that's correct or not. Want a 2ohm load.

    No. A single 2 ohm sub is the same as a dual 4 ohm sub wired in parallel. The only advantage in having a dual 4 ohm sub is you can wire it in series to 8 ohms if you have some application where that would be advantageous.

    You didn’t go into the more complex wiring, running series/parallel not all amps can go to half ohm. Like running 2 duel 2’s and needing a 2ohm final load or 4 duel 4’s and needing a 2ohm load. Just some examples. That could be helpful to some of the viewers.
