Ive got a 4 channel amp and 2 DVC 12" subs which i wanna use. I want to run each channel to each voice coil. How would i go about this? Would i have to make sure the input is mono on the amp, or would i have one voice coil on each sub LEFT and the other RIGHT...??

why dont you just keep it simple and bridge 2 channels of the amp for each speaker and run your vc's in parallel or series

well i figured id get more out of the subs this way cuz i only have 2 amps to choose from. A 4x100WRMS (126WRMS True) and a 2x150WRMS (around 140-150WRMS true). Both are 2 ohm stable, bridged the 4x100=2x300, bridged the 2x150=1x450. I could use 1 2x150 bridged and run the 2 subs off the one channel (450WRMS) in a series/parallel combo...???
Keep in mind the amps arent 2ohm stable when bridged (is what the manufacturer says)

run the four channel with pairs bridged to each sub paralell that will give each sub about 300 watts or what ever that amp was rated for a 2 ohm load should be ok depends on the type of amp
thats what i would do
