[QUOTE="HardofWhoring, post: 8829696, member: 674149"] That quantum has pretty bad reviews. I would use the Kenwood amp wired up as 1 ohm, and wire it at the terminals however is easier. It's "one terminal, with two securing points", in case you wanted to connect two wires as one. If your wire can fit in one, use one. If you want to or need to use two, use two. The amp is only a mono amp/one channel. The amp isn't deciding the resistance. The speakers are drawing power at their resistance, then combined with how you wired it to the amp, the amp sees the end result. If you wire those speakers up as 1 ohm to the amp, then the amp will respond to the draw, by pushing out power at 1 ohm. If you wired em up as 2 ohm to the amp, then the amp, would push it out as 2 ohm. You then use a bass knob/potentiometer to tell the amp at what level. The amp pushes out the level, after the speakers (and wiring), tell it the resistance. [/QUOTE]
