Question on wiring

So I'll be running 2 12" JL W0's seperately. I am going to have them in seperate enclosures since I am going to be making glass enclosures on the opposite sides of my trunk.

Now I have an Alpine MRD-M301, I think the subs as are right now are wired at 4 ohm load, and the amp pushes at 150 x 1 at 4 ohms.

Now I want to wire them to the amp at 2 ohm load, since it pushes 350W x 1 @ 2 ohm load. I was wondering how I would go about doing this?

Since I am going to have 2 sets of speaker wires running to the amp and it's a mono channel. I don't know how to wire up the subs at 2 ohm and I don't know how to wire them to the amp.

Some help appreciated ;)

Also the subs are rated at 4 ohm and I looked at the requirements for air.

It says 1.0 to 1.75 cubic feet of air per sub? That's a big range?

are they dual 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm?

blah blah blah blah

Single voice coil at 4ohm or 8 ohm.

well if i am not mistaken, u can  wire them in parallel and they will produce a 2 ohm load

blah blah blah blah

2 subs / Single Voice Coil - 4 ohms
Option #1

blah blah blah blah

If they are in seperate enclosures how could I go about wiring the subs parallel?

Also, how do they hook up to the amp?

did that diagram show up?

-------------
blah blah blah blah

So I basically just run the posotive from both subs and negative from both subs together and then connect them normal?

I think this was another reason my subs weren't hitting. They were wired at 4ohm and were only getting about 75 Watts each.

yep thats about it! tell me how they sound and get some pics of that trunk during the construction and when its done

I'll try lol, I have a crappy camera and I am trying to get a new one, because it takes horrible pictures.

well if you have 2 4 ohm subs you cant have 4 ohm.       you need to find out if the subs are 4 ohm or 8 ohm subs.     if you wire 2 8 ohm subs in parrallel     then you will have a 4 ohm load.    if you wire 4 ohm subs in parrellel then you will get a 2 ohm load,   if they are 2 ohm subs     then you will get 1 ohm and your amo will go poof

yes jeff, i would have to agree...and since its a mono amp, 4 ohm stereo (current setup) is out of the question. youre likely already running 2 ohm mono and getting full potential out of the amp
