Best set up for my subs?

Ok, first off, this is my first post here //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

The set up i have right now is ONLY temporary because i haven't had much time to change it since i installed it.

Im running 2 12" MTX 8500s with an absolute evd 2200 amp

(i have no idea why, but my amp has 2 channels instead of one)

How i currently have them set up is:

Input goes to crossover, which cuts off the lows at 200hz

goes to the amp.

amp sends individual signal to each sub.

Subs are 4 ohm dual coiled, in series, so each one is wired at 8 ohms.

Should i parallel the coils, then parallel both speakers and bridge the connection?

Or keep the signals separate, but parallel the coils?

Here's a pic of my set up

You definatly want to bridge the amp.

Seiries coils so each sub makes 8 ohms, then parrallel the 2 so that you get a total load of 4ohm to bridge to the amp.
