yes + + and - - will give you a 2 ohm load if there single voice coils. Whats your amp rated at. will it handle 2 ohm load?
oh jesus... ok, since I'm almost posative that these a SVC (single voice coil), I'd reccomend a differant amp, these two are just a horrible match... sorry, but you need to get a mono amp rated no higher than 700 watts RMS @ 2 ohms, or a 2 channel amp rated at no more than 350 RMS X2 @4 ohms...
this amp is just not right for these subs, sorry man...
that amp is not 2 ohm stable bridged... there's no way...

heres one thing I use to do to get my gain set. Turn you deck up to how loud you normaly listen to it with out the subs hooked up, then turn off the deck. Hook the subs and amp up etc. Turn the bass boast off the gain down. And turn your deck on and up to were you normaly would have it. Your subs will be moving only alittle bit. Then turn you gain up slowly till it starts to sound good if it starts making weird noise you went to fair then turn it back alittle lower. That should get you by for now. Thats a pretty simple way to turn it up. If you get into playing with the bass boast and etc, you might blow your subs. That set up you have is not going to be really loud. Just so you know. So dont try to over power them. Just because they ssay 1200 on them or the box dont believe it.

The amp paper work reads 400w x 2 (@ 4 ohm)
600w x 2 @ 2 ohm
1200 w (monaural) at 4 ohm
What would be the best set up for two XS-L121P5
600w x 2 @ 2 ohm
1200 w (monaural) at 4 ohm

AND NOW YOU TRY TO TELL ME THIS LIKE I'M DUMB....//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/furious.gif.fc81ca146dbff91fede3ed290dbc4f4c.gif
OK, I've already looked at the stats for your amp and it WILL NOT hit the max RMS of those subs... ok?
I'm done trying to help you...//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/banghead.gif.8606515f668c74f6de0281deb475b6fd.gif
