its correct..... well it depends on the specs of both

a 4ohm dvc can be wired for 2 or 8 ohms
a 2ohm dvc can be wired for 1 or 4 ohms.

the amp is 150 x 2 @ 4 ohms... and the subs are dual 2 ohms.... so the coils are wired in series ( + of one to the - of the other )


edit: i found different info on 2 sites

if you go the stereo route....

150 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms (230 watts x 2 at 2 ohms stable) ... youre better of getting 4ohm dvc and wiring them for 2 ohms each.

if you go the mono route...

460 watts RMS x 1 bridged output at 4 ohms... the 2 ohm dvcs will be wired for 4ohm each, then in parallel for a final 2 ohms.
