What is your sub configuration - single 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm each? If it is either of those you cannot get a 4 ohm load with both subs, but you can get an 8ohm load which might still be ok with your amp. What is the rated input power of your subs and the output power of your amp at 4ohm bridged?

i got a question dumb question but yea... i got 2 subs, single voice coil 4ohm... i got wires comin from both subs right... i twisted together positive to positive and negative to negative... then i got a set of wires comin from my amp wich is bridged ..... i took positive and twisted it onto the other 2 positive wires and same with the negative ... Is this still giving me 2 ohm? thanks

Yes that is correct you will be at 2 ohms, but be warned a lot of 2 or 4 channel amps will not like two ohms bridged.
