If you're connecting two subs, as long as you don't go below the recommended ohm levels (2 ohms stereo or 4 ohms bridged, for example), you can bridge two channels of the amp to each sub.

It shouldn't be a problem hooking the 4-channel to those subs. What kind of subwoofers are you hooking it up to?

Your original post asked about using 2 subs.  If you want to use a 4 channel to run a sub, I suggest amping the front speakers, then bridging the rear channels to run the sub.  At least until your buddy gets some more gear.
