Amp and Sub advice
Amp and Sub advice I'm thinking about running a RF Punch P3001 amp (150W rms @ 4 ohms, 300W rms @ 2 ohms) and a 10" Alpine SWS 1022D which has a 2 ohm dual voice coil. It would be in a SubThump stealth box. Is this a good amp/woofer combo, and how should I wire the sub? Series or parallel and why? I also plan on runing a separate 2 channel amp with components in the door in the future. Should I use 0 gauge amp wiring from the battery to support two amps? Is it a good idea to replace the battery ground with a bigger cable? The factory one looks pretty small. Sorry for all the questions and thanks for any advice.

if it's 2 ohm dvc that could mean that each voice coil is 2 ohms, meaning that you couldn't run the sub at 2 ohms unless just one voice coil was hooked up, which you don't want to do. that means the sub would only get 150 watts. besides, 300 watts is not enough power anyway 
you're going to upgrade that before you even know it! 
0 gauge? ha! 4 gauge split in to two 8 gauges is good for about 1500 watts, so that will give you a good idea of just how ridiculous 0 gauge for 150 watts is!
