One sub hitting harder

ok, wire the jumpers on the subs so that each is presenting a 4 ohm load and then wire the actual sub in parallel. Positive from sub to positive of other, negative to negative and back to box. there is your 2 ohm load.
OR, wire each sub parallel to present 2 1 ohm loads, then you wire in series which is probably easier. Positive from terminal to positive on one sub, negative from 1st sub to positive of second sub, negative of 2nd sub back to terminal of box and you're good.

. They are slightly louder and both have the same excursion, also the voltage drop is not nearly as bad as before so I must have had something wired wrong. Thanks to everyone for the help

8 awg is WAY overkill if it's from the amp to the sub. But i have a feeling he's running 8 awg for power and ground...
