Default Good sail subs?

would KICKER CVT65-2 CVT work well with the stock monsoon amp? They are two ohms and that is what factor runs at. Lett me know your opinions.

I have been through them. I was checking because they run at 2ohms like the stock ones and they have a shallow mounting depth.

The Trans Am is not 2ohm. The Camaro is. If you try and run the SVC 2ohm you will blow your amp or do damage to it. The Firebird version is a dual voice coil 4ohms each voice coil which gives it a 2ohm load on the amp. If you run one pair of wires to the midbass then you need to have a 4ohm load because that is what each pair of wires impedance is. I carry several different drivers in a SVC 4ohm version as well.
