what is the difference between 2-ohms and 4-ohms and which one is better and why?

depends on your amp. but for speakers 4 ohms is usally better and with subs it does not matter.

a lower ohm value means the speaker has less resistance and will make your amp push more power. it is all application dependant.

Just wait till you get into the multiple voice coils.

I love wiring flexibility.

you make the sun 1 ohm by wiring the two voice coils in parallel.
