I want to run them mono at 2ohms stable. I need to know if this will work, and if it will not what amp do I need to look for?Thanks

How many subs r u wanting to use

2 subs

bump

Nope, it will work but you won't get max performance out of the amp. Your running two dual 4 ohm subs which would either run the amp at 1 ohm (which it's not stable at) or at 4 ohms which would give you half the power of the amp.

You should either go with a 2 channel amp, or switch to single voice coil subs, or lose one of the subs.

dual 4 ohm speakers will give you a rating of 2 ohms a piece, or 8 ohms a piece. so at the amp its gonna read 4 ohms or 1 ohm when hooked up parallel. swap the subs for a single 4 ohm or use 2 amps

Yea ur going to have to use one dual 4ohm sub or two dual 2ohm subs wire in series or buy another amp

ok, well I'm not getting different subs so what should I look for power and ohm rating wise in an amp? Single channel and dual channel.

I'm running .75 ohms to a 1 ohm stable amp right now with no problems. My last system, I ran .5 ohm to a 1 ohm stable amp and didn't have any problems. Both amps were audiobahn. I beat the hell out of both of them and they never got hot or cut off. I ran .75 ohms to a Memphis amp that was 1 ohm stabel without any problems also. Not saying it's right, or that it will work, but it might.
