DVC same as Two Subs?

[anthq]

Hi,

I currently have two Kenwoof KFC-w3012s in a ported box. The 3012's are SVC, 4ohm, and 400w RMS, 1200w Max. Currently, I am powering them with a Kenwood KAC-8104D amp, which is 500w RMS @ 2ohms (I have the subs wired in parallel).

I'm looking at adding a Pioneer Premier TS-W3002D4 sub (Pioneer TS-W3002D4 (tsw3002d4) - 12" Subwoofers - Sonic Electronix) which is DVC 4ohm, and 1000w RMS. If I did this, I would replace my Kenwood amp with an amp such as the Hifonics BXi 2610D (Hifonics BXi2610D - Mono Subwoofer Amps - Sonic Electronix), which is 1700w RMS @ 2ohms.

Now, if I wired up the subs series-parallel (the two kenwoods in series, the two coils of the Pioneer in series, and those two circuits in parallel) would I be looking at a 2 ohm load, and expect 425w out of each Kenwood, and 850w out of the Pio?

Thanks,

Anthony

Mixing subs is not recommended. DVC just means it has 2 voice coils.
