so i bought a pair of dual 4 ohm S12L7's. i want to load them at 1 ohm off a brutus bx1500d? but im not sure if i have the right ohm model subs to do that. i thought i got the right ones but then i read the kicker manual and now im not sure. plz assure me that i made the right choice. cuz it says.....

Wiring Options

--------------------

Solo-Baric L7 woofers are available with dual 2 Ohm or dual 4 Ohm voice coils. Both coils should always be hooked up.

The dual 2 Ohm woofer will give you a 1 Ohm or a 4 Ohm load depending on if the coils are wired in parallel or in series. The dual 4 Ohm woofer will give a 2 Ohm or 8 Ohm load depending on how they are wired.

Parallel Wiring

Dual 2 Ohm=1 Ohm Load

Dual 4 Ohm=2 Ohm Load

Series Wiring

Dual 2 Ohm=4 Ohm Load

Dual 4 Ohm=8 Ohm Load

----------------------

NOW WHAT THE FAWK IS THAT??????????!!!!!!!!!! //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif plz help!!

 
You are all good. No worries.

Wire it like this

The manual is just stating that if you were to hook up one driver you would be running either a 2 or 8 ohm load. When you hook up two however, both wired in parallel, you drop the final load on the amp down to 1 ohm....no worries, just follow the pictures posted above.
