I have a 2ch amp that can run bridged at 4 ohms

If I wanted to connect a dual 2 ohm sub to it wouldn't i just wire up one voice coil to each other and the other to the amp?

I'm so confused....I look at the diagrams but IDK if they are right because it looks like the subs just going to power one voice coil then.. AHHH

 
You just wire the coils in series:

Ok I tested my box and its running at 1.5ohm right now.

My amp runs 4ohm at bridged mode....

My amp runs 300 watts rms and my sub 300w rms...

Am I gonna be able to run this? I'm guessing ill just have to keep the gain down.
