WTK Speaker Ohms

Postby Sony P910i » April 7th, 2008, 10:02 am

Suppose I have

Dual 2 ohms Subwoofer - Parallel the coils to give 1 ohm

Dual 0.5 Subwoofer - Series the coils to give 1 ohm

If I play both subwoofers on the same amp at 1 ohm, would they sound the same?? (Both Subwoofers are the same except for ohmmage)

So if played together, there shouldn't be a difference between the two?
