no amp has a specific ohm. the sub dedicates that. If your amp is stable to 1 ohm, run it at that. If not, you will have to go with 4 ohms.

My amp is stable at 2 or 8 ohms. But the sub I want to get only comes in a Dual 2 ohm. (Power Acoustik MOFO10)

if its stable at 2, its stable at 4. Looks like your going to have to run the mofo at 4 ohms. wat amp is it?

2 choices, sell your amp or pick a different sub //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif. Also when hooking up an amp you will be fine with pretty much any resistance higher than what its rated at.

And also, as a few people said, if an amp is stable at Xohms, than it is stable at anything greater than X. Below X is the only time you need to worry.
