easiest way to do it is:
run your cables to the amp
put BOTH -ve wires in the SAME -ve terminal on the amp
put BOTH +ve wires in the corresponding +ve terminal on the amp.

they were £80 each instead of £130 so got a good deal

They ain't out for a while and I would of spent the money if I hadn't of done it.

They sound brilliant already, better when I get the JL amp in this week
