Is there a way to wire 2 of these http://www.audio-warehouse.com/web/mdl/AW1200Q/detail.asp into two ohms on a 2 channel amp?

No, a pair of these subs will hit a load of 1 ohm, 4 ohm or 16 ohms. See the other thread you started for my answer on how to wire the subs to your amp.

wait a sec. What do u mean on a 2 channel amp? Are you going to run one sub to one channel? If thats the case, then yes, you can get it to 2 ohms, otherwise Rob is right.

(2) 4ohm DVC's, sure you can wire them to a 2-channel amp as long as the amp is 2ohm Stereo and/or 4ohm Mono stable.
You can wire 1 sub per channel by wiring each sub in Parallel for a 2ohm total load per channel. Each channel would look like this...

Or you can wire the subs together in Series/Parallel for a 4ohm total load and Bridge the amp (if your 2-channel amp will accept a bridge, most do) like this...
