sounds great and very easy to answer but will need to know what ohm load u have dual 2ohm dual 4ohm its going to be either one unless u have reconed with aftermarket coils to a desired ohm. Should be labled on the box if not then stamped on the back of the sub either on magnet or post's.

What amp do you have? Your options are 4 ohms in series parallel combo, or 1 ohm parallel. If your amp is not one ohm stable it will be quickly destroyed if you wire your subs that way.

Wire each sub in parallel. (positive to positive and negative to negative)

Run each sub in parallel off of one channel on your amp.
