Yes. Find something that will do the RMS of those subs @ 1 ohm, im guessing they are Daul 4's.

 

[cej2995 10+ year member]

yea they are dual 4s, I at least want to be hittin on 2 ohms

you want 1 ohm, you can only wire 2 dual 4s to 1 ohm or 4 ohms.

Rockford Fosgate® - P2D412

look at that and look at how the two subs hook up

it clearly says in the wiring wizard on that link you provided, as well as what ive said. 2 of those subs can only be wired to 1 ohm or 4 ohm.

ok, I meant 4 ohm, my bad

It wont really make a different either way. A higher ohm load isnt better or anything. You need 500 RMS at either 1 ohm or 4 ohms.

I'm normally not the dbag on these forums but... if you can't even follow that wiring diagram, take it to a shop. Save up until you can afford it. It will be cheaper in the long run because you won't destroy equipment this way. Part of life is learning your limitations. In this case, you've reached yours. Save up, take it to a shop. Sorry man.
