[QUOTE="95TsiAWD, post: 509443, member: 555500"] Yes it does matter becasue since you have the dual 4 ohm version each sub can be wired to 2 ohm or 8 ohm. This may be a problem. Because normally I would recommend a pair of 4 ohm subs and wire them parallel to achieve a 2 ohm mono load on the amplifier. A good amp in that case would be the MTX 1000d, 81000d, 1501d, 500d, 6500d, or500xd Since you will more than likely series each of your subs voice coils, then parallel them from there to achieve a 4 ohm load mono, I would say go for the MTX 942 amp.
