wire all the terminals off each sub onto that one terminal on the mono block.
optionally wire from one sub to the other...make sure the amp can take the impendance load of the subs, Im assumin the subs are 4ohm.

Run a + and - form amp just one set bridged over the monoblock then into the terminal on the box, form terminal inside box run the + to the Plus of on of the voice coils of one of the subs then to the plus on one of the voice coils on the other sub, same with the -'s and then attach remaining + and - on the two different voice coils on the same sub, il c if i can do a pic!!!!!!

2 4dvc subs will run at 4 or 8 ohm depending on how you wire them, 2 2dvc subs will run at 2 or 4 ohm depending on how u wire them, you only use dvc 4 ohm subs if you are running 1 from a class d amp.
