How should I wire my 2x12 cab

Sup' ya'll! I just had 2 JBL k120's reconded and they are now ready for their new home. I Found an old Bassman 212 on CL that I refinished andall I need to do is wire it up. So do I wire this box for series or parallel. I won't be running stereo or anything like that I just want it wired stright forward. I've got Highpeaks old Silverface Jerry modded amp if that helps. Thanks

I assume they are 8 ohm JBLS?
If so and you have a Twin Head, you need to wire for parallel for .....4 ohms.

This site desribes differences well, and has a bunch of other great DIY stuff:

Hey just a heads up, I had issues with this a while back and if you check the board archives, this has been covered in great detail. Pics and diagrams and all!
