|I got to thinking about this and I realized I had no clue as the what the answer is so here I am turning to you guys and girls for help. My question is if I have 2 8ohm single VC subs wired in parallel to represent a 4ohm load, is that load only represented at the amp or is it also 4ohms at the speakers themselves too? Or are the speakers still 8ohms a piece and only the amp sees it as 4ohms because of how they are wired?
