id much rather draw it...

ive a dual 2 ohm sub. when wiring for one ohm; pos-pos, neg-neg on sub then neg out and pos out to amp, does one out need to come off the pos of one voice-coil and the other out come off the neg of the other voice coil or can they come off the pos and neg of just one voice coil? make sence?? thanks.

yes i know this...my question is can i run the outs from the pos and neg of one terminal instead of running them from both terminals???

No. you can wire the postive and negative from the amp to each terminal on 1 voice coil then have another two peices of wire to wire from that terminal next terminal. Both need to be wired.

this is why id much rather draw it...that is what i was trying to say; p-p and n-n on the sub then on one voice coil, n-out and p-out..

Yes! Haha. crazy confusion there for a second. Thats the point of the wires on the subs is so you don't have to amp both sets terminals if u get what i'm saying

 

[vasilios 10+ year member]

yes

no it didnt

you guys arent understanding.

 

[vasilios 10+ year member]

p-p and n-n on the sub, then p out and n out on one voice coil...for the fourth time. is this still a 1 ohm load? nevermind.... http://reaudio.com/html/

 

[vasilios 10+ year member]

in the tech/wiring section it shows a diagram of what im describing for parallel wiring, so nevermind.

 

[kuijo 10+ year member]

That'll be 1 ohm if your voice coils are 2 ohm.

 

[vasilios 10+ year member]

ok, do you see that it is not the same wiring as the link bimma gave me??? that is what i was trying to describe...

 

[noob with an RS 10+ year member]

wire it like this:

p-n n-p

p=n

n=p

pn=np
