HELP Wiring 40 10's!!!!!!!

IMO if you cant figure out how to wire 40 subs together, you have no business owning 40 subs.

Incorrect, 36 is the best way to do it... if you want to utilize the most subwoofers and still have a 2ohm load per strapped pair...

~Wire a trio (3) in series = 12ohms (3 speakers)

~Wire three trios in parallel = 4ohms (9 speakers)

(Now duplicate this, making two groups of 9 speakers)

~Wire the two groups of 9, in parallel = 2ohm load (18 speakers total)

Wire this to a pair of SAZ3000d's strapped. Bam, 1ohm load per amp. Assuming an underrated 6000rms, this will be 333.33 watts rms per sub underrated.

Duplicate this for the second strapped pair of SAZ3000d's, and you have 36 10's and 12,000 watts... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

yes. Six 12 ohm loads in parallel. 18 woofers 2 ohms

I think it will work with a series/parallel combination. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

That final diagram is actually quite simple...just run a couple busbars (+ and -) and then series the subs and go back to the busbars, nice //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
