I thought I would upgrade my ACDC backbox speakers with some Kickers (4 Ohm) I had laying around and have seen posts that say SAM speakers are wired in parallel so I need to wire in series. When I opened my backbox up I notice that its wired in series with a 10 mfd cap between the left speaker negative and right speaker positive.

Am I crazy or is there bad info out there?

I found this great post that confirms the backbox speakers at least in AC/DC are wired in series.
