Zapco amp wattage

[audi1031 10+ year member]

I have a 2- zapco amps and its the reference 750 and looking at the specs it reads

Stereo 4 ohm: 2x175 watts

Stereo 2 ohm: 2x375 watts

bridge 4 ohm: 1x750 watts

T.H.D + noise

s/n ratio>95 bd

slew rate>40v/us

Damping factors >1000@4 ohms

My question is that it does not show what the Wattage would be for 2 ohm load bridge. Does anyone know what it would be. The reason I am asking is that I have 4-4ohm 15's and wanted to know what the best way to hook these up as if i should go bridged with 2 on each zapco or should I go with stereo 2 ohm at 375 watts and if i do the second option how would that happen as it does not give specs for 2 ohm load at 1 channel... Thanks I really appreciate it

Thats because its not 2ohm mono/1 ohm stereo stable

Using those amps and all 4 4ohm drivers you wont get more than 175rms to each.

In this scenario I much rather just run 2 drivers with a bridged amp on each.

It doesn't show it because it souldn't be run that way, you will hurt the amp.

Thanks So I should just run 2 15's on these instead?

You could run 4 if you use a series/parallel wiring configuration.

but the speakers have just one hook up on the speakers. This was odd as I though all dual voice coils or speakers with 8 ohms will have one set of and dual ohms will have 2 one per coil. I have been away from stereo stuff a while now but I am back
