If they are dual 4 ohm a series/ parallel configuration will be a 4 ohm load...

your options are:
2 dual 2ohm woofers: .5ohm, 2ohm, 8ohm.
2 dual 4ohm woofers: 1ohm, 4ohm, 16ohm.
if they are dual 2ohm woofers, you series each sub to 4ohms, and run them stereo. or bridge them on the amp at 8ohm. same results.
