I think you should just get a more powerful amp at 2ohms since it would be less stressful on your electrical system, but that's just me.

you need to figure out what your getting for power now and what your imp rise is, you could always get another amp and run them at 1ohm 1 per sub and gain match them, but by the sounds of it you really dont know much about audio in general (not sayin that in a bad way) but thats how it seems. As said 0.5 is tough on electrical you need to understand a few things though current draw of the amp, voltage dip, output of the alt and take into consideration what you will need for overall power, the kinetik site is nice because they have the calculator on there for this very reason. Also replacing the stock battery is almost always a nice increase...

Why? He said theyre D4, you cant get a 2 ohm load. You can get 1 or 4. If they were D2 you could get .5 or 2 for the pair. So...If his subs are D4 he should look at an amp that is 1 ohm. I learned the hard way when i bought my subs. I bought 2 D2s, thinking i would run them both off diff amps, then got amps that werent 1 ohm stable. Ended up running them both off a 2 ohm stable amp that put out more power.

woman..cant live with em...cant shoot em...guess were all fucked

You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...
