Nm figured out.. Should have searched first. Always think before you speak lol

Heres some fyi

Correct you need an AC clamp meter and a dmm. You will need to measure the AC voltage output going to each of your subs or if they're bridged just the wires going into the amp. Once you get the AC voltage you will need to find the AC current. You do this by clamping the negative wire going to the set of speakers. I'll give you an example. 

You clamp your wire and get 38.6 amps of current

You probe the + & - wires and get 61.7 volts

Next you would take the 61.7 volts and multiply the 38.6 by it to find your MAX power which would be 2381 watts

Next to find out your impedence rise you would divide the voltage 61.7 by the amperage 38.6 which would be 1.59 ohms

So if you were to have a nominal or starting resistance of .5 ohms you would have a rise of 1.09 ohms, but would have an overall reactive load of 1.59 ohms

Ur sub plays lows pretty good with the 32hz tuning?

yeah gets down nice. probably only getting 400/500ish down below 30hz. amps usually have a falloff of power under 100Hz. not bad for a single 12 though, gets impressively low for the power
