dual voice coils

I have two kicker 15 inch L7's that are dual 2 ohms. Can they be wired to be 1ohm? I have a kicker 1200.1 that is 1 ohm stable.

You run the voice coils in series, and then run them in parrell to bring em back down to 2 ohms.

Run a jumper wire from the postrive of one voice coil to the negitve of the other on each sub...they are now in series...then run the 2 remaining postive and negitives of each sub toghter to the speaker terminal jacks in the box.

The forums display the date and time for whatever timezone YOU chose. If you chose -8 GMT (- 8 hours behind the greenwhich meridan timezone, aka the Pacific timezone), it will display the dates and times as if you are in the pacific timezone. If you left it at the default when you created the account, I believe it shows that (whatever default it).

For example, my computer would show the date and time of your post for MY timezone. I'm guessing you have the wrong timezone set. if it's not this...I don't know.
