Audiobahn ALUM series
These subs are dual 6 ohm voice coils, now I am at a loss as how to wire them together, I have two of them. Is it like wiring a normal amp this way? how do you know amps can handle this power, etc?

Re: Audiobahn ALUM series
with 2 dual 6 subs you can wire them to : 1.5ohm, 6ohm, 24ohm
Find a 1ohm stable amp that puts out 50% more power than you need at 1ohm say you needed 1000 watts between the 2 subs, then get a 1500x1@1ohm amp 1500 watts @ 1ohm = 1000 watts @ 1.5ohm ^ just an example so you can see what I mean by 50% more power than you need ^

yeah not many people are a fan of this brand, but i have heard a horror story about these subs on my other forum.
this one guy had one alum sub pushed at its rms, whatever it is, and after about 2 hours the sub's cone melted, i dunno how to explain it. if were you i wouldn't have chosen these subs, but if you like the sound i'm not gonna tell you what you like, its all a matter of opinion. all im saying is be carful the first couple of times you run them you might want to check up on them every 15 to 30 minutes. i really don't have any advice to you except to wire each sub itself in parallel, then parallel the two subs, if that makes any sence whatsoever.

you could allways get two sepirate amps with 2 ohm ratings wire them to 3 ohm each sub. possibly not the best way to wire them but could be cheeper in some situations to get a pair of mid/high watt amps vs 1 verry high watt amp

the aluminum cones are a good idea in theory, they are light and rigid. Although some companies (including audiobahn) have had problems at times in keeping the surround glued to the aluminum cone
