heres a crappy Paint drawing for ya. you dont have to run both wires into the amp (like if they didnt fit or something). you can just splice 1 into the other.

I don't believe you will be able to get 1Ohm off that amp.

your best bet would to bridge the amp (if possible) and wire those subs to 4Ohm at the amp
