how do u own a re audio sub and not even know how to wire a dual 2 ohm subwoofer?

Well I'm not sure if that amp is 1 ohm stable, but if it's not, you'll want the 4 ohm diagram.

And to wire it down to 1 speaker, you bridge it. It should show you on the amp which positive and which negative to hook up if you want it bridged.

since i sold you the amp i figured i'd help you out. look at page 4 of the manual i gave you and it'll show you how to bridge both channels on the amplifier. You use the outer + on the left and the outer - on the right. it'll show a diagram even on the amp itself showing u how to bridge it if i remember correctly. Now for ur sub. you are gonna wanna end up with a 4 ohm final load so that u dont trip or blow the amp by bridging it at 1 ohm or somethin. So u are gonna hook the + and - from 1 of the voice coils together. and on the second voice coil, u are gonna connect the + and - from those to the amplifier. like this diagram on the rf website shows(USE WIRING OPTION # 2)
