i've been reading a lot about bridging amps and all that good stuff. i'm currently building a system, nothing to fancy but i want to be noticed.
first off, how do you actually bridge an amp? is it as simple as plugging in some wires or what?
second off i have 2 12" infinity woofers. here are the specs http://www.infinitysystems.com/caraudio/product.aspx?ProdId='1230W'&Ser=REF&Cat=SUB
they are single voice coil.

what would be a reasonably good fairly priced amp to push them. right now i'm using an old bazooka el1200 i had with my old subz but i dont' know if it has enough to push these right now. can someone help me out?

bridging an amp is pretty easy, and your amp will usually come with instructions to do it. all you do is hook up one of the wires from the left channel and one from the right (ie, negative from the left, positive from the right) so your sub runs off both channel with twice the power.
