2 Kicker CVR and Xplod amp wiring

[dta1984]

Hey guys, first post here, so bare with me. I have done tons of searching and believe I have what I need, just want to confirm.

I have 2 Kicker comp 12" CVR's (yellow and black series) and a 760 watt 2 channel Xplode amp. Here are the specs for the amp: 300 x 2 @4 ohms, 760 monaural @4 ohms. THis is not my first, or second choice of amp, it was a set that I bought so it will have to work for now.

What is the ideal way to wire this to get the most out of the subs? Here is a link to what I am thinking:

Is this ok, or is there a better way to do so? It appears that I need to wire it for 4 ohms, as it does not look to be 2 ohm stable. The amp is bridgable so I might do that. Thanks guys!

wouldnt recommend bridging it, as sonys are not the most stable.

What voice coils do the subs have? Dual 2 ohm or dual 4 ohm? If you have 2 dual 4 ohm subs, wire each sub in series to 8 ohms, and then wire them in parallel to the amp, bridged. This will present a 4 ohm mono load to the amp. If you have 2 dual 2 ohm subs, wire each sub in series to 4 ohms and run one on each channel, or bridge it at 8 ohms.
