basically 4 ohms gives better music as the speaker can beat faster i beleive the 2 ohms will beat slower

1 x 800W RMS (2ohms, 14.4V, 0.3% THD)
1 x 500W RMS (4ohms, 14.4V, 0.08% THD)

see where it says 4 ohms and 2 ohms, you get 800 rms on the 2 ohms and 400 on the 4 ohms

take a look at the rockford fosgate sire on how to wire the sub at different ohms, the sub has to be a dual type sub to wat different ohms too :y:
