I just got a new Alpine CDA-9855 Head Unit, and I have a new kicker kx600.1(a single channel amp), which pushes 600 watts at 2 ohm's, and 300 at 4 ohm's, I am buying two 12 inch Alpine type R's and I want my amplifier to see them as 2 ohms so it will push 600 watts, so which version do I need to purchase, the 12" Type-R (4ohm + 4ohm)or (2ohm + 2ohm), and do I need to wire them in a series or parallel for my amp to see them as total 2 ohm?
thank you for any help
