[QUOTE="audiobaun, post: 8724877, member: 634282"] If both subs you have are Dual 4 ohm subs then you should wire them to a final load of 4 ohms for both coils of each sub, for that amplifier. Another option would be wire 1 coil of each sub being as though they are a 4 ohm Single Voice coil sub with a final load of 2 ohms on that amplifier and they should only receive 1/2 of the RMS value each/ 350 rms devided by 2= 175 RMS each x 2 = 350 RMS for both subs at the 2 ohm final load of which the amplifier is capable of. Wired as followed as a Pair of SVC 4 ohm subs [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/subwoofer-wiring-diagrams.asp?Q=2&I=41[/URL] If you want both subs and both coils to be at a final 1 ohm load, then you will need to get a 1 ohm stable amplifier [/QUOTE]
