Figure out the impedence of the sub, and make sure that the one your hooking up is not lower. I actually ran a pair of lighning audios in my room for a while

Most car subs are 4 ohms where home speakers are 8 ohms. If you hook up the 4 ohm subs in series it will give you 8 ohms for one load. What you would do is hook the - of one speaker to the + of the other. Then hook the stereo speaker wires to the remaining leads on the box.
