If you are getting 1 sub, the DVC 4 ohm is what you want in order to achieve a two ohm load on the amp.

If you are getting 2 subs the DVC 2ohm is what you want in order to achieve a two ohm load on the amp.

i connect the + on one coil to the - of the other coil.

then i connect the other + with the other - and run that to the amp? i do this for both subs right?
