JL Audio 12W6 6ohm question

I just bought 2 JL 12W6AE and are 6ohm DVC subs (Used for really cheap!). I have a PG MS-2125 with 1 blown channel (can't be bridged/fixed) and I also have a PG Octane R 5.0.4 (using the front channel for MB Quart separates ) I have a custom box/install for one sub with 1 SVC Alpine Type E 12 4OHM sub currently. My question is:

How do I wire 1 12W6 ( to keep the current box/setup) to the good channel of the MS2125 to get the best performance? Can I run it in parallel to get 3ohm or run it off the bridged channel of the R 5.0.4 to get more watts/performance? I don't have the funds to buy another amp or a 3rd 12W6 to get 2ohm right now. THX

PG R5.0.4 specs:

50 watts RMS x 4 at 4 ohms

75 watts RMS x 4 at 2 ohms

150 watts RMS x 2 at 4 ohms

MS-2125 Specs:

Into 4 ohms @ 12.5/14.4 VDC 125/160 WRMS x 2

Into 2 ohms @ 14.4 VDC 255 WRMS x 2

Bridged into 4 ohms @ 14.4 VDC 510 WRMS x 1
