wiring my amps

Help! Hey guys. I have two amps that I want to wire up to push my two 12" JBL's. Can anyone tell me how to wire these amps? I'll also have a mallory CAP on the power supply to help with supplying these with constant power. I have two 400 w crossfire amps that I want to bridge to supply each one, but don't know if or how it can be done.

thanks

I would guess run the power wire to the hatch area to the cap, then from the cap to a distrobution block then from the distrobution block to each amp then ground each, splice the remote turn on wire and connect one to each. I'm not sure how you would go about bridging both amps together or if it's possible. I would run each sub off each amp. I'm not a car audio pro so someone please correct me if i'm wong.

Yep, I'm trying to figure out how to bridge my amps so that each will supply one sub. I'm wanting to get the rated capacity from each amp though.

thanks!
