If I have 2 subs that are DVC, 2 ohm per voice coil is there any way to run them at 4 ohms? |

Sure wire EACH sub for 4ohms then get a 2 channel amp and hook it up. Heres a diagram. Use option #2

How about on a Mono amp? |

No you CANNOT use a mono amp with them and get a 4ohm load. You have 3 options for a mono amp. Option #1 0.5ohm load. Option #2 2ohm load. Option #3 8ohm load. The ONLY way you can get a 4ohm load with those subs is to get a 2 channel amp and wire each sub to its own channel. Heres another diagram look at option #2 and check your specs on your amp and see if it is 2ohm stable. Good Luck
