assuming that they are dual voice coils you would have a 2 ohm load at each channel of your amp.

If your amp is 2 ohm stable hook them up like you have it. if not you will have to hook them up different.

2Ohm stereo is the same identical electrical load as a 4Ohm mono load.

http://www.online/CarAudio/p_18561_Hifonics_XXV_Colossus.aspx  Look At this amp.. Why everytime i barley get teh bass going i see green  or orange clip light

THis amps got a built in led clip sensor

Green means preclip  (always see barely turned up on any subs)

orange means soft cliped (once subs are play at a nice note See green light turn to orange)

Red means hard clip  (dont never really see)

These led blinkings are really bugging me whats going on !!  I mean it just gets going and blinking clip lights all over.. Ive messed with all teh setting (TRUST ME)  no matter what  if  teh bass comes the cliping leds come ! HELPPPPP

The green light is there to show you that you are getting input signal to the amp, it is changing to orange to let you know that the input signal is above the level required to light the green one.  They are used as troubleshooting tools, if you do not like them changing colors, you will have to mask them with something.  As long as you are not seeing red, all is good.
