mine doesn't have that. its probably the one that saids ohms. but which one do i click to 2m, 200k, 20k , 2k, or 200

you just asked us how to test the ohms of your subs and your amp says ohms on it? wow you're a bright one. you put it on the 200.

200, the ranges you've listed are:

2m - 2 milli ohms - .002

200k - 2 kilo ohms - 200,000

20k - 20 k-ohms - 20,000

2k - 2,000

200

If it's a M instead of an m that would make the first scale 2 Megohms - 2,000,000

All the different settings do is move the decimal point. So if you had a true ohm load of 1.666666666 and you had it set to one setting it might show as 2 ohm and another might show it as 1.67 and another might show it as 1.6667. I hope that makes sense.
