Default my list

Well, I have got the list of what i should be ordering tomorrow. I am ordering all of this from www.onlinecarstereo.com so maybe i won't go wrong. Here is the list: Alpine mrp-f240 4 channel amp , Alpine mrd-m1005 mono subwoofer amp , and two Alpine 12" swr-1222d subs. The subs are 2ohm+2ohm so am I choosing the right ones or do I need the 4ohm+4ohm ones? I also know i need wires but I don't know which ones to go with. For the 1000w amp, I need a 4 gauge power and ground leads and an 80 amp fuse. For the smaller amp I need 10 gauge power and ground leads. Can somebody help me out on which ones to get from this site? Do I need anything else when purchasing this? I guess all of this will work with my plans to power the 4 speakers with the 4 channel amp and the 2 subs with the mono amp? Is this all correct? I am a little confused about the mono amp powering the 2 subs. Oh, I haven't bought a box yet either because I want it to fit in my trunk, so when I go looking for a box, any suggestions? This should be the last topic and questions that I have until I recieve the items. Thanks.
Here are all of the items: 1000w mono amp - http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=14926
4 channel amp - http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=13202
12" subs - http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAu...roductID=14955

Yeah, you can hook up two subs to a mono amp provided the impedence doesn't go lower than the rated impedence of the amp. I like 12's... they a good ballance between response and level. 10's are more responsive and 15's are louder.

I may actually trade my 12" in a vented box for a 10" in a small sealed box eventually. I'm more about SQ than SLP now-a-days.
