This means that you can run the SWS's in stereo and receive the same amount of power to each sub. This is why the 2-ohm versions of the subs were made and are probably the more purchased version.

example:

300 watts x 1 channel @ 4-ohm load
150 watts x 2 channel @ 2-ohm load

Both of those situations will power the subs equally.
And as in my JL XD600/6

CH1 & 2 (200W total) -> Front
CH3 & 4 (200W total) -> Rear
Ch5 & 6 (200W total) -> Subs

All channels are 100W @ 2ohm & 75W @ 4ohm
