Answer 1

You'll want to wire the voice coils in parallel for a 2-ohm load. Follow this diagram:

Sounds like your amp and sub should be pretty well matched.

Answer 2

4ch. amps don't have the pwr for that. you utilize the 4ch. on your doors and get a mono amp for the sub. 200w head skill no longer something because of the fact the amps would be offering all the potential the top basically components the sign. Get a one thousand w amp on your sub and do the massive 3 under the hood. could want a cap additionally.

Answer 3

wire the dvc to 2 ohms... not only will it be louder, but it will hit twice as hard as if u were to wire it to 4 ohms, the lower the impedance going to the subs the harder they will hit, think of it like turning on the waterhose.... when u barely turn it on (4 ohms) your not getting anything but a trickle of power, vs when u turn it up more (2 ohms) you get a spray out of it...
