Justin I dont think hooking those 2 subs up to that amp would be a good Idea unless there both the same ohm loads If they are try bridging them

suggestion:
keep the alpine amplifier, sell everything else, and get better gear.
sony, kenwood, suck. pioneer is so-so at best for subs.

Look at a parir of 12" or 15" subs from eD, Kicker, or Adire. Any of these would be a massive leap in quality and sound, not to mention in SPL.
Then, you can use the alpine for fronts/rears, and go with a Cadence, JBL, or Kicker amplifier for the subs..
Using two 4 Ohm single coil subs, you can use a mono osub amp at 2 Ohms.
