Can I wire Two 4 ohm dvc subs at 2 ohms from a mono block amp? (pic inside)

EDIT
aight figured it all out...got another thread though with a completely different question.. please check it out

You couldnt find diagrams because its not possible to wire two 4 ohm dvc subs to two ohms.
If you series each sub, each sub would be 8 ohms, then parallel outside the box and you get 4 ohms.
If you parallel each sub, each sub would be 2 ohms, then parallel outside the box and you get 1 ohm.
If you series each sub, each sub would be 8 ohms, then parallel outside the box and you get 4 ohms.
If you parallel each sub, each sub would be 2 ohms, then parallel outside the box and you get 1 ohm.

I'm pretty sure the older bd's are 1 ohm stable though.

Option 1 (parallel/parallel) = 1 ohm load
Voice coils wired in parallel, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 1 ohm mono

Option 2 (series/parallel) = 4 ohm load
Voice coils wired in series, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 4, 2, or 1 ohm mono
Voice coils wired in parallel, speakers wired in parallel
Recommended Amplifier: Stable at 1 ohm mono

Also...i have another question...
WOuld it be better to have a:
Phoenix Gold Xenon 600.1 amp which does 600 rms@ 4 ohms X 1...split into Two to do 300 rms@4 ohms X2?
or
the Rockford Fosgate 1000bd which does 500 rms@ 4 ohm X 1...split into Two to do 250 rms@4 ohms X2?
The Fosgate amp is stable at 2 Ohms (which makes no difference..but could possibly allow it to make more powerful??)...and nothing is mentioned about the Phoenix Gold besides the 4 Ohm stability...

ALright...so now im looking into a 1 ohm stable amp...
MB Quart RAA1000 <-- will be getting this one more likely brand new.
and
Phoenix Gold X1200.1
What do you guys think? I'm on somewhat of a budget. Thanks for all the input
