Amp and subs question

[2007fx2]

i just bought an amp and subs from my neighbor it is a 1200w nitro amp and 2 10in mtx jackhammers in a box. she wanted only 30 bucks from them. i was wondering what would be the best way to wire the subs up? the amp is a nirto BMW484 SUBS jh4510-04 10" 4-ohm subwoofer polypropylene woofer cone with stitched rubber surround power range: 100-200 watts RMS peak power handling: 400 watts frequency response: 31-150 Hz sensitivity: 86.4 dB top-mount depth: 4-7/8" sealed box volume: 0.75 cubic feet ported box volume: 1.45 cubic feet

Here's your amp specs:

# RMS Power Rating:

* 4 ohms: 125 watts x 2 chan.
* 2 ohms: 175 watts x 2 chan.
* Bridged, 4 ohms: 350 watts x 1 chan.

Looks to me like you'd be best to wire these things parallel for a 2 ohm load.

A mono 2 ohm load will cook that amp if its bridged. I'd just run the amp in stereo mode with one sub per channel. (single 4 ohm coil per sub).
