[QUOTE="NSTALN, post: 8317003, member: 588169"] Take the DVC (assuming it's 4ohm DVC) and run the two coils in parallel for a 2ohm load. Take sub(at 2ohms) and run it parallel to the 12ohm sub. The result will be 1.7ohms. Run this to a 2ohm mono stable amp and you're good to go. By the way...the 1.7ohms is DCR(direct current resistance), that is different from nominal impedance which is reactive inductance. Once the voicecoil is energized/heated the DCR will rise due to heat and the nominal impedance will rise as well. not only that but most musical material will keep the subs playing well above 2ohms anyway. 2ohm mono amp and you're fine.
