you should only have to run your little plug connection on the 2 middle + and -. the Speaker line coming in on the outsides will take care of the other + and - as you had it in the pic. Then just match up your + and - wires running out from both woofers. Those will be hooked together at the amp bridged + and - giving you a 4 ohm bridged load. No you are not annoying. A lot of us do this day in and day out. It becomes 2nd nature. For your first time seeing it and doing it. It can be very confusing.

like this one. This will yield your 4ohm bridged load.

Ok. Did it. It sounds better. Thanks for the help. What size power/ground wires should I be using for the setup?

4 gauge at a minimum. The is fused at 120A they recommend 2 gauge. 4 gauge will carry a max 150A.
