Alright, ive been trying to find a solid answer all over forum's,maybe I'm not looking up the right question or im over thinking it so.

I want to put

-(2 amps on 1 dual, 2ohm sub)

-Amps do not have link option, and are able to operate 1 ohm regularly

Amps show 2 rca female inputs

-Top labeled: input 

-Bottom labeled: output

My headunit, has one set of rca pre sub outs,(will upgrade eventually.) Will a regular female to male splitter work for the input, and output to get signal to my amplifiers.

What i do know or think i know 

- both amps must be same

-speaker output level must be matched

-wire both amps to each Voice Coil. (But with 1ohm,2ohm, or 4ohm subwoofer dual coil) 

- both amps (+ to +) and (- to -).

To set match gain i will be doing the *Barevids method*

-gain match amps to output level

(example 35.3v) or whatever ill be doing with ocsope just below clipping or close to common output voltage.

-wire amps + to +      - to - 

- low volume, low power, start 20hz tone

Just until some vibrations come out of the speakers. (Again very low power, only to feel movement)

Go to 1 of the amps, flip polarity on 1 voice coil, again stil that very very low power.

-Adjust gain on that same up until minimal vibrations are felt. 

-then adjust phase, until NO vibrations are felt at all. 

-STOP TONE, flip back to regular polarity.

And amps are matched.

Questions:

1) how do i get signal to both amps (rca)

2) do i get more power?, if both amps are working the 1ohm impedance. Or if because this isnt strapping ig,

on a (dual 2ohm sub, 2 amps) they'll work the 2 ohm? because their wired to each coil independently? 

*Or does the impedance still get cut in

half wiring this way.  1 amp 1 coil (+ to +) and (- to -) 

Other amp, other coil of the same sub (+ to +) (- to -). On a dual 2ohm sub.

-If i dont get more power with a 2 ohm subwoofer, how could i get more power to a single sub with (2 amps on 1)

vs  (1 on 1)

-i deeply apologize for the length of this.. 

Just making sure i get good answers, and also dont get any wasted information for people later on like me trying to find this answer. 

Equipment i plan to use because of want and budget.

2 O-2400.1 wolfram amplifiers 

1 ZVX15 d2 

I know ill be told 1 2400 is enough. Buuut That's not what im here for. Thank you for your time, and consideration for reading this much love, and thank you to all bassheads.

-Ps. High output alternator is already on the way.

1 o-2400 is already ordered
