Wire it to 2 ohms....i ran 2 of these off of a JBL 1200.1...so 600 watts a sub. You have to be careful with your gains though. I think the best option would be the JL 500/1...but they are pricey. Whats your price range?

Also...if you havent purchased the 12w6v2...i have one still for sale. Actually just sold one of them today. Ill sell the other one for $250 + shipping. Let me know if your interested. Plus i see you live in new york...so shipping will cost barely anything...where in new york?? maybe shipping will be free if its close enough...we could meet half way or somethin.

how would u wire it 2 ohms like that?

the sub is dual 4 ohm....which means it can be wired to 2 or 8 ohms.

the sub has special connectors on it where u can just switch the way the sub is wired w/o having to do anything to the amp.... peep game
