well first of all is the amp 1ohm stable if it is you can wire them both together if its not 1ohm stable im not sure what to do, maybe you should have gotten a 2 channel amp and ran each sub on its own channel

if the amp puts out 600 watts rms then it will put 300 to each sub, have u found out if its a two channel or a mono yet?

Its a mono amp. If you want 600 watts per sub step up to the jbl 1200.1

You don't need a JBL 1200.1 it will MELT the coils that will be 400 watts OVER powered. Dave those subs will ONLY take 400watts RMS each for a total of 800watts RMS. You don't want to put 600watts to each sub. Use the Kicker amp you have and wire the subs like this diagram shows.

Use option #2

Davids no offense but you should look up the specs on products before you recommend something that will BURN up what they have.
