If you wire all sub VCs in series, then parallel all subs to the amp, thats a 1.33 ohm load. If the VCs are wired in parallel, then series from subs to amp, its 12 ohm. If you wire them all parallel on both the VCs and the subs, thats .33. Wire the VCs in parallel (6X 2ohm subs), then parallel per pair of subs(3 pairs wire together to 1 ohm), then series out to amp, that should get you a 3 ohm load.

There are a LOT of possibilities, but it depends on what amp you put it to... anywhere between 48ohm to .33 ohms...

I would suggest maybe doing 3 seperate amps, perhaps? Or going with an amp that can do the odd numbers (though any amp that can do 1 ohm mono Class D should drive the 1.33 ohm load with ease, just a hair power cut, but not much...)
