Properly splicing wires..

Doesn't matter how you splice them, as long as their connected tightly and securely... your good to go. Whether you splice all three at the amp's terminals, or splice two in the box, then splice the third at the amp, all the same thing.

 
so you have 3 wires meeting together in one terminal? sounds kinda sketchy
3 wires? Where do you get 3? If you run both sets of wires to the amp, you'll only have 2...but in my case, no I don't have that. My amp has 2 sets of terminals connected in parallel so each voice coil gets it's own set (I'm only running one sub)

 
ok i know this is a newb question, but ive never wired my subs to 1 ohm before...


but, where the boxes are, how do you properly splice that so you dont lose resonance?
lol.....god why? why do you do this to me??!! WHHHHYYYY??!!!!

its simple heres how you figure out your resistance in parallel

r1+r2/r1xr2= rt

if you have 2 4 ohm dvc subs you wire the coils +'s together and the -'s together for each sub to the terminal on the box. assuming you have a terminal for each sub on the box. if you have 2 terminals run a wire from each terminal to the amp and again put the + wires together and the - wires together. also please forthe love of god make sure you amps is one ohm stable.

 
noo.. i know how to wire it to 1 ohm, but my question is whats the best way to splice the wires? i would imagine just twisting them together or stuffing two or 3 wires together in a terminal with no real hold is not a good idea..
