yeah wire both subs in parrallel and put one sub per channel. or if its bridgeable wire each in parrallel and then again in series to the amp to give you a 4 ohm load, because your amp is most likely only 4 ohm stable when bridged. if you post up what you got it might be easier for us to help you

2 ohm stable stereo or bridged?

if it is like 99% of all 2 channels i have read about and worked with, that is only 2 ohm stereo. and it would only be stable at 4 ohm bridged

my mm4000 is a 2 chanel that is stable @ 2 ohm bridged, as are some of the older autotek mx amps. The xx-collosus is 2 ohm stable bridged. Most of ma's 2 chanel amps are 2 ohm stable bridged as well.

although i do agree, most smaller 2 chanel amps are only 4 ohm stable when bridged

and considering what he is asking you have to think of what his knowledge is about audio...and with that answer you have to think of what he bought. most likely mainstreem. but yes there are amps out there that are stable at 2 ohms bridged, but they are usually more high end and the main public usually wouldnt buy them. im guessing he has maybe a fosgate amp. just my thoughts based on his question
