if you put one speaker to each channel, each channel will have 4 ohms, which is what most amps are rated for

What is essentially being said is this: there are no options to wire them. You hook the positive to positive and negative to negative and you're done.

You can wire them in series or parallel, but then you will have to power them from one channel, and lose stereo seperation. If you wired them as such, you would gain next to nothing unless you were trying to do some crazy install which certainly doesn't seem to be the case.
