i am so lost.....

ok, my subs are wired right. They are both parallel. I have two 4 ohm dual voice coil subs. I need to know where to place the negatives and positives on each sub to the amp. I don't know what terminals to stick the sub wires into to get a 1 ohm load. Do i need to use all the terminals on the amp or just two of them?

Remember,I am trying to run 1 ohm stable by using two 4 ohm subwoofers. I am using a mono amp too.

um i doubt that POS amp you have can be bridged to 1ohm ... alot of people have told you GET A REAL AMP!

Yo, why are you being such a biatch?

That kenwood is 1ohm stable:

Here dude, wire them like this:

so only put the speaker wire in two amp terminals? Or all 4 of them. I don't get it. on the amp there is two positive terminals and two negative terminals, but in the picture it shows to just hook them up to two terminals.

he knows that but i guess its a 2 channel amp it has 2+ and 2- hes asking which + and - should he use ??

Theres probally little line that says "bridged" stick the wires in those terminals tho for most monoblocks i dont think it matters.

im going on a limb here and going to say since its is a "mono" amp It only has the extra terminals to give you more room if you are running multiple sets of speaker wire to it. They (the speaker terminals) are internally bridged. So, if you wire one speaker to each set, you are running them in parallel.

It's a mono amp. When you have 2 outputs on a mono amp it's really just connected to each other inside, it's to make it easier when hooking up 2 subs. Now i'm confused on the wiring lol. Let me try to find an easier diagram.

you mean, it will tell me if it is bridgeable by the terminals on the amp right? Ill go check
