So you have TWO Single 4ohm subwoofers... and a 4channel amp?

whats that mean?

then bridge chan 1/2 then 3/4 and run the subs at 4 omh each one on each bridged chan. no need to wire the subs down to 2 ohm

or get a mono amp.

Ok, you're going to want to bridge the amp...

So, channel 1&2... bridge. Take the positive and negative from one subwoofer and wire them up to the amp according the the "bridged" configuration noted on the terminals.

Do the same for the second woofer, except on channel 3&4...

thats what im doing now, but i'm trying to get the most possible power to the subs

briding the channels only puts around 200 watts rms to each sub, and their rms is 350.

you're not gona get any more power outta that amp. with thoes subs. sorry mang.

but with a lower impedance, would that help at all?

you just have the wrong amp.

what about bridging four channels to one speaker, possible?
