I just recently aquired a few components -an amp and 2 subs. I am not
very interested in SPL. I am very interested in SQ.

Here is the amp that I have:
CrunchPZi 175.4 -1000 Watt (peak) 4 Channel Amplifier
and the specs for this amp:
1000W 2 / 3 / 4-Channel A/B Class Amplifier
175W x 4-Ch @ 4-Ohms or
250W x 4-Ch @ 2-Ohms or
500W x 2-Ch @ 4-Ohms Dynamic Music Watts

I have (2) of these subs:
Pioneer TS-W256DVC10" Dual Voice Coil Component Subwoofer
and the specs:
10" Component Subwoofers with 800 Watts Max. Power
350 Watts Nominal Power
4-Ohm Dual Voice Coil (DVC)
Recommended Enclosure Use: 0.65 ~ 1.25 Cubic Feet

My intentions are to run this amp in (2) channel mode - (1) channel for
each sub. My question is this: Since these are dual voice coil
speakers, should I wire them as 2ohm or wire them as 8ohm? I don't
care to play my music extremely loud - I just want some dynamics,
clarity and quality!

I am really hoping someone can make me feel better about this mess. I
sure get myself into some predicaments.
