my amp ( rockford p5002)

is a 2 channel amp i'm supposing ( reason for supposing is listed below ).

it's like this.

+ - + -
[][][][]

now i'm confused about how the guy I got to hook my subs up... actually hooked them up.

I ran two 15" aw1571se's off it and they were hooked up like this

+ - + -
||[][]||

meaning he had 2 cables going from one positive outlet to a positive and negative on one sub and 2 cables coming from one negative outlet on the complete opposite side going to the other subs positive and negative..

how/what is he doing?

if needed i'll draw a pic to better explain this but I mean he didn't even use the + or - in the middle of the other two and I thought you had to use a + and - for each positive/negative on the sub.

well u need to hook them up better... try bridging both of them if its not over powering them... put the 4 negs in a channel and the 4 pos in a channel if that will work. i no u can with a svc sub :-)
