[QUOTE="City_Slicker, post: 8063541, member: 652943"] Nobody responded so I took my best guess and wired it up with a friends advice. Would realy like to know I did it right before pushing hard for a full day!! They subs are all dual 2 ohm. With one positive wired to opposite negative and other ran to amp. Which I believe would make each on 2 ohms. 2 of them are solar baric L5's. One is a wetsound 10 wired the same way. With advice from a buddy, I wired all 3 separatly, then tied all into one wire that went into the sub. I guess that would be parallel. The Rockford Fosgate Wiring Wizard website ran them from what I understand this way and it brought down to 1.34 ohm load. But now Im being told I may be under 1 ohm, which is not good.... It works, it thumps, but am I going to burn something up this way or did I wire it right??? This stereo will be expected to play hard all day at the lake (in my boat). I wanted to add the 3rd one because moving the bass forward to add fat sacs in the back for wakeboarding. Now just need to make sure are wired safely. Please help..... [/QUOTE]
