(I know this thread is a little old, but it seems there was a little misinformation and I'm curious what happened with the install any way...)

where did you see in those specs that its 2 Ohm stable? I didnt read that.

Ohms are the level of resistance to electrical current. the lower the resistance, the more usable power.

the resistance that your speakers create depends on how you wire the speakers. hence, the chart Stone_mound posted for you. if you bought 2 dual voice coil speakers, the resistance would be .5 Ohms if you just wired them straight up. only really expensive amps can reliably support that and im sure they are well out of your budget range.

even if that amp is 2 Ohm stable, in this case, it wouldnt matter. You would still have a $200 paperweight for an amp, in little time.

I went with a simple setup. A single 10" highpowered Infinity 2 Ohm dual voice coil sub, $250 2 Ohm, monoblock amp (350watts x 1 @ 2 Ohms). Most people think I have 2 12s in the truck, and they dont believe me when I say its one 10.

if you keep the subs, pay an installer/experienced person $5-10 bucks to tell/show you how to wire it without burnin up equipment and wasting money.
