well first off what can the amp take?
4 ohm's. 2 ohm's. 1 ohm?

tf the amp can only take 4 ohm's mono then wire the subs up in series, 1 coil right after another, but the sub as a whole is run in parallel with eachother to get an 8 ohm load per sob, and 4 ohm total.

and if the amp can take 1 ohm, then just run a + and - to every coil.
