You can't wire a 4 way to a 2 way, it's impossible.

it should be like hooking up a regular speaker. 1 positive, 1 negative like dman said

you put the positive wire to the positive terminal and the negative wire to the negative terminal. I must be a genius

If its the Tarantula line, you use the provided wire to tap the crossover into the tweeter wire.

My Tarantula is two way, and even with the lil crossover it is the same. + - like any other. just mount the crossover near ther 6x9.

If I am not mistaken, Tarantula doesnt have 4 ways.

They don't, but that is the only 6x9 i could see someone with no knowledge of car audio being confused about due to it having the x-over.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crazy.gif.c13912c32de98515d3142759a824dae7.gif

I dont think SS even makes a 4 way. But I may be wrong.
