i know you can wire 2 4ohm dvc subs into 1 ohm, and 4 ohm, but can you wire them into 2ohm like 2 4ohm svc subs`s?

the reason why i ask is if i run my amp at 1ohm, and i`m not happy with the sound and want to bring it up to 2ohm and i have 2 12 4ohm dvc`s subs i guess i`m stuck unless i go to 4ohm?

Are you using a mono amp?

Because if you were to wire them seperately, you could get both at 2ohm.

You need a two channel amp to be able to run them at 2ohm each.

Yup, can't be done.
Either get a better mono amp thats stable at 1ohm mono, or get a two channel amp.
