You can't bridge that amp into a 2 ohm load, which is the only way to wire it into one sub. You already have it wired up the best way you can without a 2-ohm stable amp.

That depends on if his subs are 2 or 4 ohm. If he's running 2 4 ohm subs, he can bridge to one with no problem. This would actually give him better output as well so long as his sub can handle the power.
