i need some help wiring two 15inch kicker l7s into the back of a friends jeep. They are both dvc 4 ohms and rated at 1000w rms. Currently there is one power wire which is 4 guage running to the back of the trunk and one set of rca cables. We have two alpine mrv amp which are 900w rms.

4. What adjsutments need to be made?

1. If you can wire each sub down to 2 ohms. And those amps are stable to that load do that. The paperwork that came with the subs will tell you how to wirea DVC sub down to two ohms.

2. Yes you can. If the total power going through it dosent exceed the maxium of that size wire. You will need a splitter. like thise.http://www.crutchfield.com/S-nxTMVC4...p;I=211DBX3448That will allow one wire to be split into two or more. You may need something bigger on the split side depending how much those amps use power wise.

3. Yes. If the amp is capable of it. You should have to connections that are for RCA cables and it allows you to run them in unison. Look at the instructions for em.
4. Depends on what the final result needs to be.
