Need help connecting DLS Ultimate A6

I purchased a DLS A6 which is a mono amp. the manual says that the outputs are internally bridge in parallel, so you cannot bridge them from the outside.

the manual also states that if you have a 2 ohm dvc sub, you should connect each terminal to each coil. my enclosure does not have 2 sets of terminals.

i'm wondering if it's ok to bridge the coils and present a 1 ohm load to the amp and only connect to one of the amp's outputs to still utilize the full 1200watts.

yes, it is. im wondering if the amp is pushing all 1200 watts at each speaker output or if i will have to wire each coil to each output (2)

Ok don't get confused. The amp is internally bridged, therefor the outside connections are just really splits off the same line, just like if you were to run a dual voice coil sub in parallel.
