my friend has those same exact subs you can either wire them in a 8 ohm load- 2 ohm load- or wire each voice coil seperetly. 2 ohm is what you would want that would give 300 WRMS to each sub (150 per coil). follow the link below to see how to wire the subs corectly. What box are you using? My friend has them in a sealed box right now and they sound like shit no offense though.

OK, you will want to wire the subs in series parallel I believe to acheive a 4ohm load because the amplifier gives its maximum power at a bridged state. This will allow you to push a marketed "600wrms" to the subwoofers.

I prefer JL audio's tutorials, here is their image.

and 93 satern, i was gunna put em in a sealed box but if you have any other recomendations please post em.

Well Audiobahn is reputable for not sounding good in any enclosure, especially thier lower end drivers, so I would recommend expierementing and seeing which YOU like best. Usually ported enclosures yeild the best results witht hem.

Reading through the manual for them it reccomends a ported enclosure. The box in the link is within the cubic feet that Audiobahn reccomends too, but it is pretty expensive.

Indeed it is, you can go to a home depot and purchase the supplies needed to build a proper one along with text to help if you need it for a fraction of that cost. If you are nt up to that, there are many people on here who cn build it for you, and there are many others online who can build it for you as well.

you have any information on people that will build one for me on here or around michigan?

 

[RandyJ 10+ year member]

I recommend doing a search for who builds, see where they are and if they wouldbe willing to ship for reasonable prices.
