HELP Rockford Fosgate P3L-S10

[KRN 10+ year member]

I just bought a pair of P3L-S10 pre-loaded enclosures. These speakers are said to be internally wired dual voice coils at 4 ohms impedance. Each box only has 1 set of spots to hookup like a single voice coil. With it being internally wired and one set of hookups does the change my total ohms if I were to wire these parallel?...or would it be 2 ohms like it would be if single voice coil? With these speakers being rated at 300 watts RMS and 600 peak how many watts amplifier would be best? 600? 500? I'm really just looking to get the most I can out of these two little guys? Any suggestions?

Are you taking them out of the enclosures and rewiring or just trying to get them down to 2 ohm by tying the wires together into a mono amp?

staying in the enclosure so i guess a mono amp @ 2 ohms if wired parallel?

Yup....

how many watts for the amp if each speaker is rated for 300 rms and 600 peak?

600 @2 ohms. Each sub will see 300.

The P3 "shallow" sub in each enclosure is DVC 2 ohm with the voice coils in series. Wiring the enclosures in parallel results in a 2 ohm impedance to the amp. 600 watts RMS would be about ideal.
