I've only wired SVC subs before, so I'm having trouble figuring out how to wire these new subs I got. They're 2 4 ohm DVC alpine type R's. I'm hooking them up to a mono class D amp.

I'm trying to figure out how to connect them to the terminals on the box. Will I only have 1 positive and 1 negative wire when I wire both subs? Do I just connect one wire to the positive terminal and one to the negative on one terminal of the box, or do I have to have both terminals on the box wired with a pos and neg wire?
Hopefully this makes sense... I'm almost confusing myself. I've just never done this before. And you use 12 guage speaker wire to bridge subs, correct?
Thanks for the help. Sorry for being long winded!
If you are trying to get a 4ohm load on the amp then use the link below and wire each sub inside the box according to the second diagram.
This is called wiring in series and results in 8ohms.
Then take the two positives from the outside of the box and wire them together on the positive of the amp and then do the same with the negatives to the negative on the amp.
This is called wiring in parallel and results in a 4ohm load on the amp.
