It is a mono amp. The amp has two sets of speaker outputs just to make connection of multiple subs easier - the outputs are connected to each other in parallel internal to the amp.

Wire the two positives of one sub to one of the positives outputs on the amp.

Wire the two negatives of that sub to one of the negative outputs on the amp.

Wire the two positives of the second sub to the second positive on the amp.

Wire the two negatives of the second sub to the second negative on the amp.

Ok then to get down to 1 ohm I hafta bridge them on each sub correct? Pos to pos neg to neg?

 

[polarisfctyrcr1 10+ year member]

Will I be able to fit two 10 gauge speaker cables into the amp terminal?

 

[polarisfctyrcr1 10+ year member]

So owens that's all I gota do to get a 1 ohm load?

 

[Brian Owens 10+ year member]

Yes. That is called parallel.

The formula for total resistance of loads in parallel is:

1/R + 1/R . . . . + 1/R = 1/R(total)

In your case -

1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 4/4 = 1/1, so the end result is R(total)= 1 ohm

edit - 10 gauge is no problem. You can just jump the coils on the sub with 12-14 ga., and run a single 10 ga positive and a single 10 ga negative for each sub back to the amp.

K thanks a lot. Glad sumone had the patience with me.

your confusing me........ there should only be 1 neg/1 pos on each sub

If all else fails, you can pay me to wire it.

No problem. Been there. When I think back to crap I did years ago, I am glad my family did not have a computer for me to tell people about it on forums //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Not if it's a dual voice coil sub:wow:.

SE's are DVC 4 ohm. (2) pos and (2) neg on each sub. Each coil is 4 ohms.
