SVC vs DVC
dual voice coil subwoofers require power to both coils but allow a little more flexibility in your wiring:
a dual 4 ohm sub can be wired to 2 or 8 ohm and
a dual 2 ohm sub can be 1 or 4 ohm.
note that this is a single sub only. Different combinations of subs can be hooked together and still keep an acceptable load on the amplifier (for most bridged amps: 4 ohms; for others, 2-4).
Also note that it's best to use a single channel or bridged amp with the coils wired together on the same amplifier output. The minute differences in the different "sides" of an amplifier can screw the speaker up eventually and connecting the coils to the same channel eliminates that problem.
Supposedly the output of a DVC sub can be a little more than an SVC one.
