Your RE 8's are dual 4 ohm, aren't they? https://www.reaudio.com/html/

Here's your wiring diagram: https://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp?Q=3&I=42

Use a mono amp. The load would be too low to bridge across a two channel amp.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
