Hi, im wiring 1 Dual Voice Coil Subwoofer with Dual 2 ohm Voice Coils

JBL GTO1202D (https://jbl.com/car/products/product_detail.aspx?prod=GTO1202D&Language=ENG&Country=US&Region=USA&cat=SUB&ser=GTS )

My question is.. will a Boss CH-700 (https://www.bossaudio.com/home/catalog/public_html/print/productSpecDetails.php?product_id=363 ) do the job correctly connecting the 2 channels bridged with the subwoofer coils connected in series? Thanks

Im not sure because of the ohm load and that thing, because i think it will have a 4 ohm load and im sure if i connect the amp in bridge mode it will give 400 RMS at 4 ohms

Wire one channel to eah voice coil. It's the VERY same power (specified by Boss as 600wpc, but more likely 100wpc - if that, in the real world) to the woofer as your suggestion. Otherwise, yes, you can wire the coils in series, then bridge the amplifier. It should be a safe load for the amplifier.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
