Parallel will probably be the best configuration.. do you have the amp bridged or are you running the 2 speakers on a single stereo channel?

Is your box of good quality? Plenty of airspace for those particular subs?

Max watt ratings mean VERY LITTLE.. the most important rating is the RMS rating!!

Parrallel is the best way to go. If you wire them in a series then you will be doubling the ohm load which isn't always good. Where as when you wire them parrallel you will get half the load. So if you had two 4 ohm speakers you would get a 2 ohm load or with 8 ohm speakers you would get a 4 ohm load. I am pretty sure that is right.
