subs are 2 dvc 10's 2ohms.. amp is a ma audio 1000watt..

Ex too.

I can use MS Paint if you want. But it won't come out as nice.

wire it just how it shows in the pic...

just take one negative terminal on one sub then run it to the second sub negative terminal then from there to the negative terminal on the amp. Do the same for one positive terminal on sub 1 and 2 then run it to the amp. take the remaining two terminals on each sub and wire to each other.

hope it makes sense...

thats all i can say about that

ya but coil one has the white dots on them or somethin weird like coil one postive and coil 2 postive had the dots thats what threw me off last time...can u get a pic off the back of one and draw it up? i went from a kenwood 1000watt to the ma 1000watt and it somethings not right they dont hit at all... they wiring shouldnt even need to change...

ok so is it that ur amp has four terminals and not two? because many monblocks have four terminals now for ease of wiring

the amp has just 2 terminals i dunno how to put the two dvc 2ohm subs together to make a 4 ohm load.. which connectors do i bridge??

dude IT SHOWS IT IN THE PIC! ok so on each woofer do you have two terminals on each side? if so they should be labeled + , - connect one - terminal from one side to one negative terminal on the other woofer then from that terminal to the negative side of the amp! DO THE SAME FOR THE POSSITIVE on the opposite side of both woofers! now on each woofer you should have two remaining terminals on each sub positive and negative. take ur speaker wire and connect the positive from one coil to the coil 2 negative terminal. do the same for the other woofer and ur done!

Cant get any more in depth on this man 4 real! it really is not that puzzling.

ha i agree. its pretty straight forward man.

it just confuses me cuz coil 1 and 2 are close together.. would it sound better puttin the 500 watt to one sub? instead of 250 on each when they need 600?? this is how there wired now..

right now i have coil 1 neg and coil 2 positve bridged is that right?? same on the other sub then a wire running from the 2 hooked to the coil 1 postive and coil 2 negative.
