Hook ur speaker wire into the two that say bridged on them(it will the positive from one side and the negative from the other, and it will be labeled)...

And are you running one sub or what?

i am running 3 subs..let me check to see if it says bridged

I have never ran 3 subs bridged, I did run 2 12w3v2's bridged off a kenwood, but not 3...im not sure if it will work because of the ohms...

they are 3 JL 12w6s dual 6s wired to a 4 ohm load..termials say speaker ouputs

thats all they say, because on top of my amp it says bridged with two arrows pointing to the terminals u need to use...

says they can be bridged only to 4 ohms...500x1@4ohm..i cannot bridge 850x1@2ohm

mine does not say that..its a 2005 model...but manual has it pictured like this..............speaker inputs

+ + - -

and on the left most terminal and 3rd form left they have a picture of 1 sub wired up L+R + - and its solid lines they have another 1 sub wired on the other terminals but its dashed lines
