one last question ( ihope)

i cancelled an order on 2 subs beacuase they were taking to long and i think im for sure sticking to 2 new kicker 10's l5 or l7. My question is when ordering these subs, the l7 handle 600w rms and the l5 450 rms. my amp is a clarion dpx1001.2

Continuous Average Power Output 300W (150W x 2 into 4 Ohms 20Hz-20kHz @0.05% THD)
Typical 2-Ohm Stereo 300W x 2 @ 0.5% THD
Typical 1-Ohm Stereo 500W x 2 @ 0.8% THD
Typical Bridged Power 1kHz 1000W @ 1.0% THD
my question is should i order 2 dvc 2ohm or 2 dvc 4ohm? the amp will be used soley for the 2 subs with the high rms wattage i think they can handle the max outpout of this amp? but how do i get it. if this amp is bridged minimum load is 2 ohm, but in 2 channel its 1 ohm. Is this normal?? i thought you could have smaller loads bridged? anyways when in mono, which i should be in right?? will this be too much for the amp? i was planning on 2 dvc 2 ohm in parallel to one ohm then one sub to each channel. 500 x 2 @ 1 ohm? but thats in stereo so what about mono?? Also is this gonna be hard on everything?? i guess i'll need a cap too. And if anyone could reccomend which is a better value l5 or l7
thanks again
