[QUOTE="dustinr, post: 1073169, member: 555629"] To feed the sub's the proper power (500 RMS) You'll need to wire them to a 1 ohm load.. However the Type R's can handle way more then the specified RMS. (500) Also, I'm not sure if that amp is 1 ohm stable.. so it looks like you may need a new amp. Does the setup seem fine? Sure it sounds great man, but what matters is how it sounds to YOU.. Here's a lil diagram showing you the possible ways you can wire your subs up to that amp.. If I were you i'd try to run it at 1 ohm for the time being.. But if it starts shutting down/getting to hot.. then yea.
