Hey guys, need some help. I have a single Image Dynamics IDQ10D2 V.2 10" IDQ Dual 2 Ohm subwoofer that I am installing in a sealed box. I have been reading up on amps, but I'm a little confused. Do I need a mono, 2 channel,or 4 channel amp? Do I want to run 2 ohms or 4 ohms? I want a decent amp but nothing crazy expensive. I'm just not sure what amp to match to this sub. Any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Sorry miss read. Just get a simple 4 channel amp like the Image Dynamics Q450.4 or a similar. You can series the voice coils and show a 4 ohm mono load to the amp. Put the sub on Ch 3/4 and run your doors off 1 and 2.
