question:

how do you plan on mixing these subs, one of which will be at 2 ohm and one at 4ohm?

Unless you have two constant-output amplifiers at any load (rare and far-between) then each subwoofer will be getting different amounts of power, and basically the dual 4 (wired to 2 ohm) will be twice as aloud as the other.

It's not going to sound good... especially if they are really in the same box and there is no partition.
