I have been reading the threads and notcied Glasswolf knows what hes talking about :D... My Question is I have a Kenwood KAC-929 Amp and 2 10" Kenwood subs, and 2-ohm stability
how can i wire everything properly??

And also i was thinking about Phoenix Gold Subs 10" would this amp do the job? and what kind of PG subs would you prefer, or is there anything else higher quality?

ideally, to get the full 230wRMS x 2 from the amp with two subs, you need each sub to be 2 ohms, or 4+4 ohm DVC with coils in parallel, one sub per channel.

I don't know the coil configuration of your 10" subs so that's all the info I can offer

hmm
ok wire coils in parallel (+ to + and - to - on the two pair of coils) and put one sub on each channel.
they're only rated for 150wRMS each, total, and you'll get ~230wRMS each from that amp so if they start to bottom out, don't turn it up so loud..
just be careful and you should be fine

you can do better.. hell you can buy type R 12" subs for $120-150 US each, and build a good box for $40 in hardware.
