Ok like i said im going with 8 12" pioneer premiers. I need to get all 8 down to a 2 ohm load bridged, or in stereo on my amp on each channel a 1 ohm load. i was thinking getting them all dual 2 ohm then series wire each sub for 4 ohm then parallel 4 subs to be 1 ohm load right? Then the same to the other four is this correct? Thanx.

You can do it like this for 4 dual 2 ohm subs to get 1 ohm to each channel
