It depends.

Speakers are generally 8 ohms.

So two subs in parallel means they are presenting 4 ohms to the amp. The amp is rated 1000 watts at 2 ohms, which means to have hte amp give the full 1000 watts, you'd have to have 4 subs in parallell.

Speakers in parallell with the same resistance (ohms) will divide by two, in series, they will double the resistance.

Do the math from there.
