running 4 speakers on 2 channels (2ohm)

gredd

I have an MTX 4 channel amp I just took out of a truck I am selling. In the truck I was running a set of DB components in the doors, and the other 2 channels were bridged for a 12" sub. I would like to install this set-up in my car and run 4 full-range speakers on 2 channels (the other 2 for the sub). My question is about wiring the speakers in parallel so that the amp sees a 2 Ohm load. I know that you should run the + connection from one speaker to the next, then to the amp (same for neg.). But I am wondering if you would get the same result if you just ran both speakers to the amp and piggy-backed the connections to one channel? I suck at explaining - hopefully this makes sense.

Thanks
