[QUOTE="Firewalker, post: 8795715, member: 676743"] You should have bought Dual 4 ohm subwoofers. When sending them back ask them to send you Dual 4 ohm subwoofers instead. Running that amplifier at 0.5 ohm is not good and put too much power to those subwoofers. Or run it at the 2 ohm in option #2 like the one in the link below. Also you need to reset the settings on your amplifier. Check out 12volt for the voltage settings, use a 40hz test tone, have the eq on your head unit at flat, volume at 75% and bass knob all the way up. Use a DMM to set the voltage on the amplifier. Lot's of videos out there on how to do it.

So for 2 ohms it is 1,200 watts and the voltage would be 49.9. If it is 1 ohm it would be 2,000 watts at 1 ohm equals 44.7 voltage [/QUOTE]
