Need help with wiring up subs to Monoblock RF R2-1200X1 amp

So i tired to look up how to wire DVC 4Ohm subs down to 1 Ohm.  Below is a photo stolen off this forum and modified to my wiring setup.  What I was to know is if this is the correct way wiring to get 1 Ohm.  Both subs are rockford fosgate P3D4 10 inch subs.  What the confusing part is to me, is the conflicting info out there on the WWW saying that the amp is brigded internally or you have to bridge the subs in parallel to get down to 1 Ohm.  I haven't tested it yet as of the time of making this post 03:19 6-27-24.  Do I need to bridge the subs together or does the amp do that inside cause I don't want to blow up my brand new amp.

You don't need those "bridging" wires, the terminals in the amp already have those connections made inside. Those two set of speaker terminals are one and the same because it's a monoblock.

 

Bridging a monoblock involves a second amplifier.
