The amp Im going to buy runs 4ohm at 200RMS and 2ohm at 500RMS, obviously id like to run at the higher power, they make the particular sub im going to buy in either 4ohm DVC or 2ohm DVC. From what i understand you can make the 4ohm DVC present a load of either 2 or 8 ohms and the 2ohm DVC present either 4 or 1 ohm loads... So im wondering how do i wire the 4ohm DVC sub to present a 2 ohm load???

To reach a 2ohm load with a single 12" DVC woofer with (2) 4ohm coils, you would run them in parallel. This is to connect the positive terminals on the woofer together, and the negative terminals on the woofer together, and then also connect the positive and negative to the amp (usually via a terminal cup on the box).
