[QUOTE="jinx8402, post: 7392431, member: 541063"] I was originally going to go the switch route. However I'm scrapping that and going to go with just manual wire switching. Like you said, I don't want a failure, and I knew there was a chance of failure with either the relay option or switch option. Of course, I was intending on doing all switching with the system off (I'm not that stoopid, lol [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG]) I drew up a diagram of how it will work. I will basically use 3 sets of terminals. The first set is hooked up to the amp and to the neg and pos on opposite vc on the subwoofer. I will use the other two sets as jumpers that will only allow for it to either be in parrallel or series, with no way for it to fail. If any one would like to see the diagram, or make suggestions if you notice something wrong, here it is: [IMG]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-V_f_pvATU3E/ThZwc64Z3iI/AAAAAAAABCg/NosrY7KOKl4/s512/3terminal%252520%2525281%252529.jpg[/IMG] In the diagram showing the subwoofer hooked up to the terminals, there is both a green line and blue line going from one pos to the terminal and the other neg to the terminal. Those are not separate wires, just did it for the diagram so I could follow along better [IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
