well....my fiend has some really bad subs...and i am rebiulding his box for his....and while doing that wiring them (2) to 4 ohms.

well....i found out that one of the subs tinsle threads (i think there called) is broken.

the subs are duel 4 ohms

one is working great while the other has that problem....any ideas on how to wire it with only one terminal?

can i just use one of the terminals and that sub will still be at 4 ohms?

What subs are you talking about? And what does having rubber caps on the magnet have to do with a speaker being crapy?

The octane r 10 is phoenix golds entry level sub. Furthermore the rubber cap on the magnet has no negative effects what so ever, its just cosmetic. The octane r is actually pretty good for what it is.
