bridgeing questing

Im a semi-retard when it comes to car audio and i have read a bunch of stuff but a lot of it doesnt make sense to me so...I have two pioneer 12inch subs rated at 600W max. They are 4 ohm speakers. I curently have them on seperate channels on my pioneer GM-X942 amp rated at 100WX2 RMS and 300W X 1 rms and max of 200W x 2 and 600 W x 1. I want to know if i should bridge the two speakers together. Would I get more power? can my amp handle it. Here are more specs for the amp...load impedance 4ohm(1-8 ohm allowable)(Bridged 2-8ohm allowable)

any other specs you need to help me out let me know thanks

your amp is stable bridged down to 2 ohms like you said so it will be fine
