Hey I'm kinda new at car audio . I have a ma audio amp hk1000D class x mono block amp 1000rms x 1 @ 1 ohm .. And I have two 12 inch kicker cvr . 800 watt each dual voice coil 4 ohms.. They hit really hard an spin nice but injust wanna make sure I won't mess up my amp or my subs . I had to wire them in series because I only have a mono amp ..and I heard since my subs are 4 ohm and I wired them series that it turns it into 8 ohm ? So I'm kinda confused if I can have some help from someone who knows what there doing ill gladly appreciate it .. Just don't want to mess up my subs or amp if it's getting too much power it can handle

look for what you have here and it will show you exactly what to do
 
Wiring them in series will make it 8ohms, wiring them in parallel will make it 2ohms. With the increase in ohms it is causing more resistance giving the subs' less power less rms. I would say wire them in parallel. That way they are getting more juice each, causing less harm to the amp and sub. Some amps are not designed to handle them wired that way, so I would look more into the specifics of the amp.
