quick, simple, wiring and amp question

[powerstroker 10+ year member]

I am gonna be wiring my subs and amp this weekend. My amp is a Crossfire xp600D and the subs are svc4 Sundown E8's (4 subs)

I am gonna wire the subs parallel to get a 1 ohm mono load. I have been told that the amp is 1 ohm stable and that its a mono amp.

The amp has 4 terminals (2+'s and 2-'s). Which terminals should I wire to? Does it matter?

Should I wire to one set of terminals, or use the + from one side and the - from the other? If its a mono amp, why 2 sets of terminals? Thanks, Jake.

Well its mono if its bridged at least. It is probably a two channel amp if it has two sets of +/- terminals. I would try and find an instruction manual for the amp online - amp instructions are pretty good with showing you bridged configurations. Some amps only play bridged with certain configurations too so I'd check.

Incorrect. It's a monoblock amplifier, it just has 2 sets of outputs.

It doesn't matter which you use, it's just for simplicity. Use a + and a - and it'll work //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

...Fair enough.. ^what he said^

Let me know how you like that amp if you don't mind, always looking for good amp brands. My old USAMPS150 on my enclosure is bound to die one of these days and I need something to help me fight off my tears if it does.
