Ok, getting a dvc 4ohm sub, and im going to be wiring it at a 2ohm load to a mono amp (one positive to one voice coil, the negitive to the other) but this speaker is going to be inverted... so how would that work out??

(forgot to add this to origonal post)

Because if you reversed the polarity it would be the same thing as you began with.

Look at these diagrams on Crutchfields site.
Assuming you mean only (1) 4ohm DVC sub, the top diagram on this page should do it.

Hey,I wondering about bridging 2 ohm loads on Amps? I thought most amps cant handle a 2 ohm load bridged? Thanks.

Yes i understand that, but when you invert a sub, you are sapost to invert the polarity, if you do that, it would still be the exact same set up, so im assuming that woudnt work?

Nevermind....missed the question completely...I missed the inverted part. wouldn't that mean it's done exactly the opposite??? BIG GUESS from the FNG

Just swap the pos and negative on the amp. Instead of the positive of the amp going to the positive of the sub, hook pos of amp to the negative of the sub, and vice versa. Then, wire the voice coils just like you would normally.
