So I mentioned on another topic that I finally installed 2 more Wet Sounds XS-650 RGB's up front. Very happy with the output. Quite a difference, and after the initial 5" hole drilling, not all that difficult. BUT, once I got everything hooked up I went and took my multimeter and double checked the impedance. 1.9-2 Ohms, just as expected. So then I went and checked the factory wired four rear speakers(2+2) and I am getting a reading of 7.3-7.4 Ohms! I take a closer look under the helm and trace the one helm mounted speaker wires and I can see that they seem to have wired it in Series instead of Parallel! I am completely baffled why they would do this since the HT4 amps that originally came with, nor my SYN4's are meant to be running at 8 Ohms and are both 2 Ohm stable amps! So did Bennington screw up, or did they mean to give less volume output to the 6.5's? I can not figure out what the idea was for this. Any thoughts?
