The two channel is two ohm stable bridged?
If so and the subs are Dual Voice Coil..
Bridge the amp...
run 1 positive speaker lead from the amp to one of the voice coils on each of the subs and 1 negitive lead from the amp to the other voice coil of each sub.
Then run a speaker lead combining the positive and negitive of the two voice coils on each sub.
That will give you a 2ohm load.

if it is a two channel 2ohm stable amp then run two subs parallel on each channel, pos on one speaker to pos on other speaker then to amp pos. and so on |

If you only have one set of voice coils then your right they are only SVC.
If you amp says "2 ohm stable and 4 ohm bridgeable" then your only 2ohm stable in stereo (using both channels) and 4ohm when bridged. So that changes things in how to wire.
Since they are SVC and your amp is only stable bridged to 4ohm mono. Hook them up the following way.
