I have a 2 OHM Image Dynamics DVC IDQ V.2 D2 sub. I will be powering it with the rear section of an Eclipse 32440 that claims to be 2 OHM stable. Now, did I make a mistake getting a 2 OHM sub since I am only installing 1 sub? Isn't my only option to wire it 1 OHM? Can this amp handle 1 OHM, or should I just get a 4 OHM sub?

Here are the specs on the amp.

from the spec, doesn't look like the amp can handel 1ohm stable. You may be able to do it, but it will probably overheat, or not even work.

Why don't you wire the speaker in series, and make it 4ohm? since your amp looks like it support 4ohm.

 

That is what I have decided to do. Looks like the amp can only handle 4 ohm in mono anyway.
