n00b question! yay!
Ok my friend has this p miller amp with a dual voice coil rockford sub. Each coil is 2 ohms. How would I wire this sub to get it the most watts possable?

either wire the sub to 4 ohms and the amp mono... or just run a voice coil to each channel... either way you'll get the same power output... i wouldn't reccomend putting it down to 1 ohm and then bridging the amp... kaboom.

The kid had it running into .5 ohms. It would over heat like after 20 mins and hed have to let it cool down for 10 mins. Ill jus run each coil to each channel, thats 1000 watts (hopefully since its bazooka)?

I heard those bazooka amps are very underrated. He's probably getting more like 67854193671 watts out of that thing

actually each channel would see a 1 ohm load...

600x1 at 4 ohms
150 + 150 =/= 600
300x2 at 2 ohms = 600x1 at 4 ohms
therefore
impedance of the sub/2 = load to each channel
concordantly
1 ohm from sub = .5 ohm per channel = overheating master p endorsed amp
