Default Stupid question of the Day

Can I run a Alpine MRD-M605 in series with two "10" inch subs or do I have to buy two Mono Amps to run each sub.

If the answer is yes, what ohm impedance do the subs have to be to run them in 2ohm load in sereis to both subs!


I think I meant to say Parallel vice sereis! Basically I want to use one Mono amp with two subs at 2ohms. Can somebody tell how to do that if possible!
The amp i am looking at is Alpine MRD-M605. If I can does that divide the watts between the subs or are both subs running the same RMS wattage.

R,

Free

if single voice coil they need to be 4 ohm wired parallel, if they are dual voice coils they should be dual 2 ohm wired to 4ohm, and then paralleled.
