take a look there and it should give you everything you need and show you the different options for the different ohm loads. Remember... don't go below 4 ohms on those. Above is ok, below is not.

when you drop the Ohms and put them together, they go even lower. 2ohm + 2ohm = 1ohm which ur amp is not capable of. try this, with one subwoofer on one voice coil connect the positive (+) and negative(-) together(the ones without the dots) and the ones with the dots run to the speaker terminal like normal. do this for both speakers

In short yes. And is very common even has its own term called bridged. Taking two channels and making them one. I would hope that you are running a cap. that's going to put out a lot of power and stress on your battery

This depends on the ratings of the Amp. Check the docs for your amp. My Alpine will go as low as 2 ohms. The lower you go, the hotter your amp will get, so be aware of that. I actually had to mount a 12v fan next to mine to keep an air flow going over it. The thermal override was tripping.
