Need help!

Okay, here's the deal, I need some help with how to wire an amp up to some speakers. What I've got is 2 10" Subs in a bandpass box, one of the subs is inverted (basket facing out) and the other sub is mounted normally. I have an amp that I want to hook up bridged, it is 2 Ohm stable. Now, I know that I must reverse the polarity of the sub that is inverted (+ of amp to - of sub, - of amp to + of sub) but is there anything else special that I need to do? Can I hook both sets of wires coming from the speakers to the bridged connection on the amp? Should I just run one speaker wire from the amp and split off of that one wire with the two wires to the speakers? I guess what I'm wanting to know is will the amp only run at 1 Ohm instead of 2 Ohms if I have 2 wires going into the positive and negative bridged terminals? If so I would think the best way around this is to run only one wire from the amp and then splice the two speaker wires onto that one wire. Thanks for any help you can give me!

First of all, your subs don't have dual voice coils, do they? To tell just look at the sub, and if it has 4 terminals, (2 +, 2 -) chances are it does.

Actually they are Single Voice Coil and they are 4 Ohm Impedance.
