Ok, I dont think its possible, at least what I have found on the internet, but I am wanting to run my subwoofers at 2 ohms. I have 2 12" Crossfire BMF's with dual 4 ohm coils. I am running them with a VISONIK V317SX 800-Watt Mono-Block Amplifier that is 1 x 400W rms at 4 ohms mono or 1 x 800W max at 2 ohms mono. Is it possible to run these at 2 ohms or am I stuck with 4 ohms? From what I found I can wire them at 2ohm x 2 but then when I connect them to the mono block it brings it down to 1 correct? Please let me know. Thanks.

well that sucks, cause then im only running at 400 watts total. I use to have 4 of these woofers and 2 1000D BMF amps but the amps were burt up because the guys who installed it didnt ground the bed of my truck so they were running off of one batterys power uncharged. I should see about getting them fixed but ah well...such is life I guess

But thanks for your reply
