Dual Chamber Enclosure Wiring Help

[awehlage]

Alright members, be gentle as this is my first post.

Recently received (2) SoundQubed HDS312's D4. I am going to wire them in parallel/parallel down to a 1 ohm load. I have the diagram from the12volt.com No questions there.

My questions are am I stuck having most of the wiring outside of the enclosure because it is a dual chamber and I can't keep the speaker wiring internal? Is it recommended to use the terminals on the enclosure or should I install different hardware?

Any help would be greatly appreciated whether it is a simple reply or link to a resource! Thanks!!

Here is what you can do, have 4 terminal bolts to each side of the chamber so 8 bolts in total. Wire each coil's + and - to the terminals and then you can do the parallel wiring from outside the box. Easy access to subwoofer wiring without taking the subs out of the box.

Thanks Jeffdachef, this is awesome! Appreciate your help.

Any certain size bolt to use? Stainless steel okay?

Should I just not touch the terminal cups on the outside of the enclosure?
