I got a sony xm-1502 760watt 2/1 channel amp. there's a L and R channel. how do i "Bridge" it ?
do i just take the POS and NEG terminals from each sub and connect to ONE amp ?

I have the above amp and it is bridged to 2 jl woofers bridged. All i did was take the outside pos terminal and the inside negative terminal (on the right hand side).
can you be a bit more specific as to how to do that? like what wires do i connect to?
i'm a newbie sort of.
thanks!
we need to know the impedance of the voice coils on the subs to really help you out. are they svc or dvc? whatever u do, dont run that amp at 2 ohms unless u only want to run it for 5 minutes and never use it again.

good one mike! Knowing dvc or svc is good just as wiring options. As for bridging use a 10-16 guage wire and just hook those up to the amp like I said.
wire nowadays is color coded cooper colored is power and silver is ground. Silver to negative copper to positive.
Then depending on svc or dvc & ur preference you can do parallel or series wiring.
hope that helps!
