^^ You're right...it's not mono stable at 2 ohms.... but it does put out 150x2 @ 4ohms which would still be full power... that's what is so great about JL amps...

Since you have dual 4ohm VC's, all you have to do is hook up one channel + - to one side of the speaker + - and do the same with the other channel..... then take the 2 +'s on the sub and switch them.... this way both coils still get identical input cause they're both using half of each channel...

so, i'd basically run one channel of the amp to my speaker and nothing to the other? (i.e., 300watts @ 2 ohm per channel)

Or wire it like this to get 8ohm mono (which with that JL amp, will still give you 300 watts)




this would probably be best with the JL amp....

Both channels (2+'s and 2-'s at the amp and at the sub) would be hooked up in this scenario....

No....it will run properly because your amp will be seeing a stereo 4 ohm load...
