Amp/Sub Setup, Bridged=How Much Ohms?

So yesterday I blew my infinity sub. I had it wired off of one channel, 2ohms, wired is parallel, 300rms.

I'm getting an Alpine type r which is only 4 ohms, and can handle 500rms. I'm wondering if I bridged my amp, 2 channels at 4ohms, 200rms, into my box and then did either series or parallel circuit, what would the ohms be?

Or could I just run each channel to each voice coil to make it easier?

look up ohm's law on wiki.

i think 2x4 ohm channels still equals 2 ohms.

4+4
---- = 2
