Subwoofer Wiring

Hey guys, I have searched forwards, backwards, up, and down. Is there a way to wire two 4-ohm DVC subs into a monoblock amp to get a 2-ohm load?

you would need dual 2 ohm, or wire them to 1 ohm and use a 1 ohm load resistor, which will kill half your power. maybe get another amp.

i'm just gonna go with the 2-ohm model. They are just a little harder to find.

You could get a 2ohm load from them, but your talkin lots of wiring into relays to alter the load.

Why not just get 4ohm SVC's? Only benefit to DVC's are the wiring abilities.

Those are nice subs. What's wrong with these then? They are 2ohm DVC and if you have a monoblock they can be wired for a 2ohm load just like you want. LOOK
