Well, assuming they are 4 ohm single voice coil you could run them in parallel (2 ohm load) (amp + to spk1 + to spk2 +. amp - to spk1 - to spk2 -); series (8 ohm load) (amp + to sp1 +. spk1 - to spk2 +. spk2 - to amp -) or just stereo with each sub on a channel (4 ohm load per channel). What I usually do is set it up parallel then bridge the amp. Yes, I know the amp isn't rated for it's 2 ohm capacity when in bridged mode. Yes I know it can damage the amp. Did I care? No. Did I ever have a problem? No Just be aware that is not really proper.
