EDIT: sry, i missed what you said; NO! DONT hook it up like that, u'll fry ur amp!! you're giving a 2ohm stereo stable channel a 2 ohm mono load! its more complicted. if u wanna understand why, read up on www.bcea1.com (http://www.bcea1.com)

this is how its drawn out on my soundstream manual, its also a 2ch amp.

say u have (driver A), (B),and (C), and on ur amp, (Left +), (L-), (Right+), and (R-), a low pass filter/inductor, and a high pass filter/capacitor.

wire (L+) to thru LPF to (A+). wire from (A-) to (R-). wire from (L+) thru HPF to (B+). wire (B-) to (L-). wire from (R+) thru another HPF to (C+). wire from (C-) to (R-).

that looks kinda confusing, but its not. plug and chug. L = left channel, R = right. ur 3 subs, A, B, C.

as for the HPF, LPF, i don't know, maybe someone will say you don't need em, but maybe u do. i'm just giving u what i got on this here manual. hope it helps
