amp, 2 ohm dvc power acoustics?

ok i got 3 ten inch 2ohm dual voice coil power acoustik fubrs. had 4 1 blew. rockford fosgate punch 800.2, that has a gain problem (broken gain knob and the frequency selector just turns instead of stoping at the highest and lowest point. well this is the same amp i blew 1 of my L5s with. is there a way to salvage this amp? so my subs are not clipping from the over extended gain on 1 of the channels? also on the fubrs i wired them up to 4 ohms each ( running a wire from the positive of 1 voice coil to the negative of the other voice coil, then running a set of wire too the remainging 2 voice coils, per speaker) so by doing that i would be creating 3 seperate 4ohm loads, this is series wiring i think. what would be the best way 2 wire my subs safely, i know it depends on the amp, if i cant get my hands on another 10" power acoustic fubr 2ohm dvc sub 600rms what would be closest to one of them. would a alpine r type mesh in with the family well? help sugestions anything will be appreciated! thx matt.

Pop the plastic dial off an turn the knob with a pair of pliers. The cheap plastic likely broke, and the potentiometer is fine. You should be able to turn the gain down this way. You can't just keep hooking up speakers to this channel. If you have money to be wasting like that, send it to me instead. I mean you probably could have just bought a new amp for the cost of the speakers you blew out. Make sure you are getting speakers with an RMS rating matching the max output of the amp and you shouldn't have anymore issues with blowing them out...
