[QUOTE="jaygeorge1979, post: 1435979, member: 544378"] the ohm configuration is the impedence, which acts as resistance to the power from the amplifier....you can get either dual 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm....with dual 4 ohm you can wire the coils in parallel and the subs in parallel and get an overall 1 ohm load so, if you had a nice powerful mono amp (one channel) that could handle a one ohm load, you would be set....as for brands, im not quite sure....but you want enough RMS power @ 1 ohm to power each of the subs....for example, if your sub is 500 watts RMS, then get a 1000 W RMS @ 1 ohm mono amplifier [/QUOTE]
