Answer:
Like dragon explained - you can either wire it with the coils in series for a 4 ohm impedance, meaning the most logical option for an amp would be a bridged 2 ch. http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/1_sub_DVC_2_ohm_2ch_bridged.jpg Or you can wire the coils parallel, giving you 1 ohm, where you'd want a 1 ohm stable mono amp. http://m.seimg.net/product/img/subwoofer_wiring/1_sub_DVC_2_ohm_mono_variation2.jpg http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_29706_Kenwood-KAC-7205-Amplifier-Kit.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_41233_Cadence-XAH250.2-Orange.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_20887_Orion-XTR5002-XTR-5002.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_26887_PowerBass-Xtreme-XAX-500D.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_36208_Crossfire-C3-501.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_21909_Kicker-DX500.1-10DX500.1.html http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_39675_Cerwin-Vega-STEALTH500.1.html

If your subwoofer has dual 2 ohm voice coils you need an amplifier that makes around 500 watts rms at either a 1 ohm load or a 4 ohm load. Their is no way to wire two 2 ohm voice coils too a 2 ohm load. Charles answers every subwoofer question with the same wrong answer.

you need a class d or mono amplifier that makes the same amount of RMS that the sub woofer can handle and the amplifier has to be stable at 2 ohms.hope this helps.
