well, you could wire both voice coils on each sub parallel and the run from the subs to the amp in series. that way you'd be running at 4 ohms. if your amp can handle 1 ohm, run everything parallel.

mah bad, i thought you only had one channel. yeah, use that wiring setup and you'll run at 2ohms per channel. trust me when i say these subs will hit nice and hard. i'm more than happy with the one i bought and decided not to get a second. i dont think my car could handle too much more
