i could be getting this completely wrong....but if you wired the subs in parallel wouldnt you only need one amp? or can you run more than one amp to subs wired in parallel?

Not to sure still new to car audio.. pretty much wanting to run each amp to 1 ohm how would i wire them? so that would be 1000ish watts to each sub..im going to be running 2 amps..sorry i was unclear

theres no such thing as too expensive when it comes to upgrades like that, because imo if you are gonna spend to upgrade then do it correctly rather then be a cheap ass ricer

well in order to do it the way he wants the subs would have to be dual 2 ohm, each one wired down to a 1 ohm load. if u do this though i recommend getting something like a maxxlink so that u can garuntee each of your subs are in sync with each other. If your stuck on getting two amps than this is the way to go, but it wold be a lot easier to get the t2000.1, and get two dual 4 ohm subs and wire them down to a one ohm load together so that you get 1000 rms to each sub from just one amp.

just get a 2k watt amp and wire them in parallel that way the are both gettin the power you want.
