Help with DIY Subwoofer and Amp install

[JakeNBake]

Hi All, I've looked tireless for the answers to install my sub-woofer to no avail. I'm very new to audio installation but am hoping to get better at it.

I have a CT Sounds Bio 1.0 10 Inch Car Subwoofer 4 Ohm inside a BBox E10S 10-Inch Single Sealed Subwoofer Enclosure. The amp I'm using is a BOSS Audio R1002 Riot 200 Watt, 2 Channel, 2/4 Ohm Stable Class A/B, Full Range, Car Amplifier.

For the life of me I can't determine how to connect the sub-woofer to the amp. The enclosure has one set of spring clips, which I've connected to the interior ports of the sub using speaker wire. After that I'm at a complete loss. The Amp has connections for L + & -, R + & - but nothing for the sub.

If anyone can guide me I would appreciate it!

I've attached pictures to all of my equipment.

I don't believe that amp is bridgeable. So you have to use the + and - from either the left or right. That is not a very good amp for a sub. Any chance you can return it?

Thanks for your reply. At this point I couldn't return it without a favor from the manufacture. I could buy one that works better if I need to though. Do you think connecting it to either L + - or R + - would work? Or would the sound be mediocre?
