you can potentially burn up your amp. you have to find out the resistance of those subs. if they are 4 ohm, your amp will be seeing 1ohm, which will most likely overheat.

when you parallel your subs (the method boogers told you) the resistance is cut in half. when you bridge your amp the amp will see half the resistance, hence 1 ohm for 4 ohm subs.

for that setup to work without the potential for your amp to burn up, you need 8 ohm subs or have one sub for each channel.
