help me please (mostly with wiring)

[cory51191 10+ year member]

I have a Fusion 2000watt amp (PP-AM200010). I wanna get 4 Hifonics (HFi-12D4) 12" 600watt subwoofers. Or 2 Boss Diablo (D12F) 12" 1000watt subs. Would either of these be a good setup on that amp? SVC or DVC? How should i wire the subwoofers to the amp if i do the 4 HFIs (SVC or DVC) and the 2 Diablo's (SVC or DVC)? this is how i have the subwoofers wired now: http://i188.photobucket.com/albums/z179/cormaster13/wired.jpg

I have a 4 gauge power supply wired to the amp on an 80watt fuse at the terminal and 4 25watt fuses in the amp.

The 4 subs that are currently hooked up to the amp are wired to the amp with speaker-wire (not sure on the gauge but its a tiny bit thicker than basic speaker wire). What guage should i get for the new Hifonics or Boss subs?

and does anyone have any other GOOD recommendations?

What exactly are you trying to achieve

You want more or better what

Why is the set up you have now NOT doing what YOU WANT

The subs, amp, or wiring may not be your problem

The box is the most critical factor in regards to good and powerful BASS

You could be just wasting your time and money by changing subs

well I have a nice box. the problem is most definitely the subwoofers haha. the subs i have hooked up are meant for DJing (they aren't even name brand subs, how cheap can they be haha) and they can barely handle anything. it sounds like a stock sub in a new car. I actually just blew them this morning and i wasn't pushing them that hard at all. i'm looking for good sounding power that you can hear from down the street if i wanna turn it up a bit, but i don't wanna pay 120 per sub. those diablo's seem like they would handle a good amount at 500wrms with dual coil but i don't know what my best option is.

and the only reason i need help with the wiring is if i get DVC subwoofers cuz i don't know how to go about hooking them up

if u think thats funny, it was on a 60watt fuse that blew. thats how i ended up with the 80s cuz the guy said they would be good. what size fuse will i need?

and can u help with the subwoofer options at all please?

well that didn't help out much but those are the only fuses that have to do with my system besides the 10 in the back on the head.

so u can't help with subwoofer options?
