How To Wire Your Earthquake Subwoofer In Parallel

Series formula:

PARALLEL WIRING

Ohms 2, 4, 6, 8

Where R= Total system impedance

If using SINGLE 2 OHM coils the total load would be 2.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 4 OHM coils the total load would be 4.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 6 OHM coils the total load would be 6.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 8 OHM coils the total load would be 8.0 ohm

If using SINGLE 2 OHM coils the total load would be 1.0 ohm

Ohms 2, 4, 6, 8

If using SINGLE 4 OHM coils the total load would be 2.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 6 OHM coils the total load would be 3.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 8 OHM coils the total load would be 4.0 ohm

R1+R2+R3+....

Rt=

Where Rt= Resistance seen by amplifier

Example for series connection

For this example for all other
series applications.

If using SINGLE 2 OHM coils the total load would be .66 ohm
If using SINGLE 4 OHM coils the total load would be 1.3 ohm
If using SINGLE 6 OHM coils the total load would be 2 ohm
If using SINGLE 8 OHM coils the total load would be 2.7 ohm

Ohms 2, 4, 6, 8

If using SINGLE 2 OHM coils the total load would be 0.5 ohm
If using SINGLE 4 OHM coils the total load would be 1.0 ohm
If using SINGLE 6 OHM coils the total load would be 1.5 ohm
If using SINGLE 8 OHM coils the total load would be 2 ohm

Ohms 2, 4, 6, 8
