ya call me dumb lol but im lookingat some new subs for my car and they say 4 ohms and one says 8 ohms there the same price so whats the difference

 

its the resistance. the 8 ohm sub resists the flow of charge more than the 4. what you could do is hook up 2 4 ohm subs on one circuit in series and 1 8 ohm sub on another and the total current flow would be the same across both circuits.... but i just know that from physics..... for all i know it might sound like ****.....

lol thanks my dads explained it to me before but i forgot lol im only 14 im thinking about buying a bass package for my car and doing it the right way right now i got an audiobaun with a scorche 600 watt amp and i also got a orion 15" comp. but i need a bigger amp for that

 

depends on the amp & what it can handle for wiring config. Also are they svc (single voice coil) or dual? Here's a good calc that will show you the diff wiring options to get the impedence you want. At top of page just click how many subs & what ohm/vc & it will show you the wiring options with what the final load will be.

edited.... also a crapload of other info on this site for audio & if you scroll down to vehicle wiring info they have '89 camaro on there too.

 

thanks both of yall
