Here's the scenario. I have a dual 15" bandpass box with 2 Audiobahn AW1508T subs. I have a Rockford Fosgate 1000bd and it doesn't put out enough juice to crank these up to any respectable volume whatsoever. I also have a Sony Mobile ES Amp (can't remember the model number.) Can I bridge the two amp to up the power or not? I'm not sure. Let me know.

No you can't. Your only option is to get a larger (much larger, 4,000 RMS) amp to push them with. Personally, I think you'd be cheaper and better off to go out and get more efficient subs than spend a bunch of money on a 4 kilowatt amp to push those with. There are many subs that will hit harder with less than half the power that you'd be giving those.

or replace those subs with better, more efficient subs.
that'd require less power and probably give better results in the end as well.
