Ohms is a measure of resistance.

Need to match the sub and amp.

If you bought the 2 ohm version of the BL, you will wire the coils in parallel making a 1 ohm load.

Find an amp that makes max power at 1 ohm, not 2.

There is a section titled BASIC ELECTRICAL here you need to read:

Or read about ohms and many other topics here:
