running amps parallel question

[jinx8402 10+ year member]

i have 2 12' kappa perfects, each 350 rms (4 ohms)...i was wondering what amp to get

should i get an amp that is 600x1 @2 ohms or 600x1 @4 ohms...im guessing it iwould be the 2 oms, only because when you run it in parallel, it would be 4 ohms a sub right? i really have no idea on running amps parallel!!!!! would it be easier to get a 2 channel amp so it is less confusing?!

go with if your subs have a single voice coil(SVC) the 2ohm amp bc when you wire it the load will be 2ohms. go with the 4ohm amp if your subs have dual voice coils(DVC).
