Are you putting the 4 ohm in place of the 6 ohm? Or are you adding the 4 ohm as a second driver?

The 4 ohm will be louder than the 6. As long as they are in separate chambers of your enclosure they will be fine. Just connect both positive speaker terminals to the positive terminal of the amplifier, and connect both speaker negatives to the negative terminal of the amplifier.

You could not have set it up at 1 ohm. A 6 and a 4 ohm coil paralleled = 2.4 ohms.

I noticed no reference to a dual voice coil driver. Which one is a dual voice coil?
