is it possible to wire two dvc 4 ohm subs to a monoblock class d amp for a 2 ohm load?

right now I have two alpine type r's, these 12's are both dvc and ech vc is 4 ohm.

I have each sub wired in series (pos(pos,neg-pos,neg)neg)

then i have them ran in parralel to the amp from the outside of the box. my box has two connections one for each sub.

so my amp is reading what? 8 ohms? how do I wire them, so my amp reads 2 ohms?

Take a look at the left hand column on this site, you'll see a link called "Woofer Wiring."

No. Two 4 ohm, DVC subs can get you 1, 4, or 16 ohms.

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."
