I have 2 Kicker S10L7 subs they have the Dual 4 ohm voice coil's, I also have a 2007 KICKER ZX1000.1 Amp. The amp Is 2 ohm stable, How can I wire the subs so everything is running at 2 ohm's, I have looked at the wiring diagrams on kickers site, but it is confusing to me!

Thanks for any help : )

The only safe way to connect those speakers to that amp are as follows.

Option 2 (series/parallel) = 4 ohm load
Voice coils wired in series, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 4, 2, or 1 ohm mono

The only way to achieve a 2 Ohm load with 2 speakers would be Single 4 Ohm voice coils or Dual 2 Ohm coils.
