Is it possible to hook up these subwoofers together to this amplifier and make it work?
I've got 2 Kicker 10" subs. 1 is a dual voice coil 2ohm and the other is a dual voice coil 4ohm. And my amplifier is 1ohm. I know this is an odd setup, but I have these subs just laying around. I had a DD 12" hooked to the amp originally, but it blew. Thanks for any and all info.

It can be hooked up to any type of impedance and in parallel or in series.
But the problem is...if it's NOT wired to that impedance on the amplifier or if it's wired to a 1 ohm load to an unstable 1 ohm amplifier, then the amplifier will run extremely HOT and go into the protect mode until it cools down. This becomes dangerous for the amplifier and the vehicle. It will have a chance to melt and catch on fire.
Switch to a single sub. Go with neither the DVC 4 ohm or the DVC 2 ohm. If you want 2 subs, then replace the DVC 4 ohm for another DVC 4 ohm or replace the DVC 2 ohm for another DVC 2 ohm.

Yes, it may be possible to hook up a bunch of speakers to an amplifier and it will work. You left out too many factors to allow a better answer than that.
