just like this //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

EDIT-

Does the 600.1 have the dual output terminals like the 1200.1 does ? If so you could just connect the positives from both coils to the positives on the amp, and both negatives to the negatives on the amp. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Okay it's the same as the 1200.1. You can wire either way I showed ya above. Both ways accomplish the same thing //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

i wired the 2 postives to the postive terminal and the same for the neg.

so im assuming its down to 2 ohms now?

what if i bridge it too? would that make it go down to 1 ohm or would it stay at 2?

tnx

Yes sir that would be paralell wiring. And yes it is showing the amp a 2ohm nominal load. And you can't bridge a mono amplifier. It's only one channel //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
