by my gathering
your amp is 2ohm stable, so with those 4ohm svc's this looks to be about right

Whoooa... wait up there a sec. I think you may be wrong on this one /r7... You'd be right on if that amp really was 2-ohm stable MONO, but that's a 2-channel amp, right?
Almost ALL 2-channel amps are not 2-ohm stable when bridged. Many $1000 2-channel amps are not 2-ohm stable bridged!
You amp would be short lived, I'm afraid, if you wired it like that.
Either wire it in series, giving the amp an 8-ohm load bridged, and dropping your wattage by about about 1/2, or run each channel to a sub (stereo mode).
I hope you see this mrdragon!

Why don't you sell those two amps and get one 2-ohm stable mono class-d amp? It would be far more appropriate for you. I don't like the idea of trying to shoe-horn something together, do you?

What I want to know is, mrdragon down under:   do you do installs for a lot of other people or do you keep switching up stuff for your own system??

Just for my own use....i am on tight budget atm.
See atm i am running 2 12" and my amp can only produce 50RMS per sub...and i was think if i can double the power by putting in a second amp...then why not...since the second amp can only max 100RMS.
