On the DMM, switch the button to 200 on the Ohm scale. Put the negative lead to the negative and positive lead to the positive on the driver. Well since you're running 2 on each channel, just measure by the speaker wire. Make sure you remove it out of the amplifier though.

Edit: When you measure the voltage, set the DMM to the DC Voltage meter on the 20 scale or something and then just put the positive on the 12v+(red) and the negative lead to the ground(black)

Check and see if any of your voice coils went bad. happened to me about two months ago. thought it was my amp. dam near drove me crazy cuz i thought to check everything but my speakers individually. worth a shot if your goin to check things out check everything till you find what it is. troubleshooting 101
