well if it sais its 2 ohm stable you should be able to, or else you will cook your amp or the sub, i bridged my x-plode 2 channel amp to 1 channel -(760watt rms 2 ohm aparently) and the thermal cutout kept turning it off coz its not stable at 2 ohm.
anyway it should tell you how to wire it up to 2 ohm you might need 2 subs and put them in series
...or is it paralell to lower the ohms??
...aah i forget sorry  |

| you'd need either two subs, or a sub with a double voice coil setup. |

| on a 4ohm amp, 2x4ohm subs wired in parallel will drop the ohms to 2ohms. |
