Default what is ohms in a subwoofer speaker??


The ohm is a measurement of the electric resistance between two points.
In a speaker, the ohm is a bad thing. The lower the ohms the less energy
it takes to drive the speaker. The less energy, the more you get out of
your amps. An 8 ohm speaker requires more amperage to run than a 4 ohm
speaker. You need to know the ohms of all of your speakers if you want
to calculate the load your amp is taking and to compensate for it.































Here is a good site that goes into great detail about it.
