Im going to try to put a rockford fosgate 1001bd on my two MTX subwoofers (DVC) but the subs are 4 ohms each and the amp is rated at 500 watts x 1 @ 4 ohms..will this work with two 4 ohm subs on a mono amp? If so how should I go about wiring these? (inside the enclosure and out)

...EDIT...

Subs: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=13312 (already have those)

Amp: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/ProductDetail.aspx?ProductID=13421 (thinking about getting that)

here just found this on google. they tell you just about any combo you want. displayed are the 2 speaker setups, but at the bottom of the page is a listing for a number of other ways also.

Even though I'm sure these guys have already answered your question, this link gives diagrams on wiring multi-subs, etc. etc.
