Nope. Click on the "woofer wiring" link in the left column of this site and enter your information for the possible wiring schemes.

Sounds like if your amp is 4-ohm stable you need to wire everything in series for an 8-ohm load to be safe. Or get a different amp that is 2-ohm stable, or different speakers.
