wire them in a series for a 1 ohm load becuse u got the 1dual which is .75 ohms a sub and it would be 1 ohm load if you put them in a series

thanks. ive only had these FI's for a couple weeks now so im not really familiar with there capabilities and restrictions. so i dont wanna toast these things

i'm pretty sure the rating on that amp is RMS and not max. if it is, 4,000 is way too much to put on a pair of BLs. that kinda power is better suited for the BTL.
