i have to 10" subs and a 2 channel amp. the enclosure has two plugs on each side of the subwoofers. do i run a positive and negative from each subwoofer or can i bridge the wires to the amp from one plug? will that make both speakers play?

It sounds like the easiest thing to do would be to simply connect one sub to one channel, and one sub to the other.

if the subs are 4ohm run them to each separate channel, if they are 8 ohm, you should bridge them. Or if your amp can handle 2ohms, then you can bridge the 4 ohm subs too depending on how much power the subs can handle and how much the amp is going to put out
