I've researched and seen all the pictures and know pretty much what to do, its just I am confused about 1 thing. In the pictures it shows that there is two positive wires going into the master amp and two negative wires going into the slave amp. I will be running three D1's so plan on wiring them by paralleling the subs then running them in series to 1.5 total. I will then have 1 positive and 1 negative wire coming from a sub. but do I need to have 2 positives and 2 negatives going into the amps or will just the 1 for each work?

I know about the negatives need to be connected between both, and the master amp gets the rcas from the head unit then connect br out to br in just not sure about the wires to the amps. Thanks

 
Not gonna lie...you confused the shit out of me...
Haha yea I know it's confusing. Don't know how else to explain it though, just need to know if I need two positive wires going into the master amp and two negative wires going into the slave.

 
Im saying no you dont. You just need one wire for positive and one for negative. All amps now days have two sets of hook ups for each pos and neg for some reason. Makes for easy wiring.

So the two holes for the negative are both connected inside the amp. Same for the pos. So like when you look at your one amp it looks like its a two channel amp even though its a mono amp.

Cool thanks, I just hooked 1 to each and then connected both sets of negatives to each and it works perfect.
