need more info but I'll give it a shot and hope i answer your question.
You will need one of the following to get your desired ohm load:
1- single voice coil at 1 ohms
2 - single voice coil at 2 ohms wired + to +, - to -
2 - dual voice coil at 4 ohm all wired + to +, - to - so that you only have 2
wires conected to the amp.
hope this helps.

Is running your amp at 1 ohm bad for your system?
Only if your amp is rated to handle a 1 ohm load. If it's not you WILL... fry your amp.
Fosgate amp 400 A4 max power at 1 ohm?
No it's not 1 ohm stable. But it is 2 ohm stereo stable
Dose a 1000 watt 1 ohm stable amp work for my dual 2 ohm L7 12s?
yes but make sure the rms power for each is the same or close at 2 ohms and wire both subs in series-parallel
What unit is used to measure resistance?
The unit of electrical resistance is the Ohm. It's written as the Greek capital Omega:Ω1 ohm = 1 amp per volt
Would a 50 ohm load and a 100 ohm load connected to a 120 volt supply have the same voltage?
If they're connected one at a time ... first one and then the other ... then each one has 120 voltsacross it while it's connected to the supply.If they're connected across the supply at the same time in parallel, then of course they have thesame voltage across them, because their ends are common.If they're connected across the supply in series, then the voltage across the 50-ohm load is 40 volts,and the voltage across the 100-ohm load is 80 volts.

I HAVE A crunch 1000.1 AMP THAT im trying to push 1 punch p3 15 subwoofer how do i wire it?
If youre running a single woofer get the dual 2 ohm woofer. Wire them parallel, which will bring it down to 1 ohm when you put it on the amp. 1 ohm will pull the most power from the amp
Can you hook up a 4ohms sub and a 2ohms sub to the same amplifier?
ONLY if your amp can pull a 2 ohm load! Which is vary few but your more expensive amp can pull 1/2 ohm load
If an amp runs 1000 w rms at 1ohm how do you wire a dual 4 ohm speaker to run at 1 ohm?
the impedance of a speaker is a characteristic that is has. A 4 ohm speaker will always have a 4 ohm impedance and it cannot be changed. If 2 speakers of 4 ohm impedance are wired in parallel, then the total impedance will be 2 ohms. Similarly, if you wire 4 speakers together, the total impedance will be 1 ohm. Wiring a 2 ohm speaker to an amplifier rated to drive a 1 ohm load should work without any problems but expect the total power output to be somewhat lower than with a 1 ohm load.
Can a 1 ohm auto speaker be replaced with a 4 ohm auto speaker?
Yes It can be. But can your amp handle a 1 ohm load? you can go to this web site www.the12volt.com They have load calculator's and also you can ask the car audio gods any questions and the will answer all you questions for FREE....
Wire 2 dvc 4ohm subs to 2 channel Amp-sub400rms4ohm amp 350x24 ohm rms 700x22 ohm rms 1400x1 4 ohm peak power Best way to set up?
This question makes little sense. Could you say what model amp it is? With two 4 ohm subs, you can either do 1 ohm or 4 ohm. Now if you have a bridgeable two channel, I think you can do a 2 ohm load. For a 4 ohm load, two 4 ohm subs, connect both positives from one side of the subs to the positive out. Then the negative coils from the opposite side (other side of the sub) to the negative output. Then connect the remaining negative and positive together on each subs. Look here http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp
What ohm load will 4 12 in dual 2 ohm play at?
There are a lot of possibilities here, especially since your question is worded exactly right.I'm taking it you have 4 12" speakers, each of which have Dual Voice Coils (2 Ohms each). You want to wire them together and see what ohm load you have.Ok, there's multiple ways to wire this up. Series, Parallel, and Series/Parallel combo.Wiring these speakers in series can give you either a 4 ohm load, or a 16 ohm load. 4 ohms if each speaker by itself (having DVC) is wired in parallel and 16 ohms if each speaker by itself is wired in series.Wiring these speakers in parallel can give you either a .25 ohm load, or a 1 ohm load. Again .25 ohms if each speaker by itself (having DVC) is wired in parallel and 1 ohms if each speaker by itself is wired in series.Wiring these in a series/parallel configuration can give you tons of different wiring options and ohm loads. In your case .75, 1, 3.2, 4 ohm loads.So your best option would to be wire your speakers up in series, with each speaker wired in parallel to itself. This way you'll get a 4 ohm load, if done properly. Make sure your amp can run a 4 ohm load too.
If you have a 1000 watt 2 ch amp and 2 1000 watt G A 12's how do you set it to 1 ohm?
unfortionatly it alot more difficult than that. you first need to know if your subs are dual or single voice coil. then the ohm of the coils. your next step is to make SURE your amp is one ohm stable. (most are not) if your sub ohm will match you amp ohm. safely. its all in the wireing of the amp to the subs to change the ohms. if you dont know exactly how to wire them DONT DO IT yourself.
Fosgate amp 400 A4 max power at 1 ohm?
No it's not 1 ohm stable. But it is 2 ohm stereo stable
Voltage drop - explanation in terms of electrons?
If you had a simple circuit of one hot wire (10 ohms), a load (100 ohms), and a neutral wire (10 ohms) at 120 volts; total resistance would be 120 ohms, divide 120 volts by 120 ohms = 1 amp (electrons), current stays the same in a series circuit, so 1 amp would flow through each part of the circuit, 1 amp times 10 ohms equals 10 volts dropped on each wire, 120 - (10 + 10) = 100 volts left for the load, 1 amp through the 100 ohm load proves this
What is the best way to wire 2 svc 2 ohm subs with a Rockford Fosgate T500 1db?
How much power can the subs take in terms of RMS wattage? You can either wire them to a 4 ohm load where they will each see 125 watts, or to a 1 ohm load where they each get 250 watts. Rockford Fosgate supplies a very useful feature for showing how to wire the subs for the impedance that you want: http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/rftech/woofer_wizard.asp
How do you wire 4 dual 4 ohm coils subs to one ohm mono?
If you wire all 4 coils parallel, you get 1 ohm (mono).
