I am right, you are wrong.

I think you are missing the point I was making . You said

If you wire those in series, it goes down to 2 ohms.
If you wire those in parallel, it goes up to 8 ohms.

That is completely backwards. Series adds ohms . Parallel lowers ohms

And I know he has 2 subs. 2 subs with 2 - 4ohm voice coils on each one.

I was just pointing out how wiring the two voice coils gives him either 2 or 8ohms on each speaker
