amp wiring question

[TEutis]

I'm new to the forum and thanks for your help. I'm installing a stereo in my boat and had a question about the wiring of this JL Audio 6450 amplifier. I'm not clear if my diagram puts a 2 ohm load in channels 1,2, & 3 or a 1 ohm load (see attached diagram). Amplifier is 2 ohm stable. Thank you very much for any help you can give me. If you need additional information please let me know and I'll do my best to provide it.

if the voice coils are 4 ohms on your speakers then you have the two ohm load you are looking for.

Very good example of your problem for someone that is new to the site, but I'd have to ask what impedance load are you sending to the amp? Is your sub a single/dual 4 or 2?

It is a single 4 ohm on the sub. Thank you for the quick replies, I really appreciate the help.
