Hi peeps, i'm gonna be running 2 sets of these and just wonderd how i can get the amp to be powered at 14.4 V to get the most out of the amp.
would i need to upgrade my battery for this or is it just simply a switch, on the amp to switch it from 12V to 14.4V
thanks

doesnt matter what battery you have etc all cars run at 12v with engine off and 14.4v with engine on!

one thing to point out mate is that i hope your got the DVC 4ohm versions, otherwise you will need to swap amps that are 1ohm stable 
but i would upgrade you front battery and do "the big 3", and see if that helps. Otherwise new alternator, then split charge system

do u mean, two subs and 2 amps your running, or two subs to one amp?
if your havin one sub per amp, your sub will put a 1ohm or a 4ohm load on the amp mate. as its not 1ohm stable you'll have to wire it to run at 4ohm, givin u 175rms.
if you want it to run at 2ohm, get a 4ohm DVC sub, and put a 2ohm load on the amp.
---
if you are running two subs off the single amp, then two 2ohm DVC subs are perfect
