[QUOTE="soundstreamer, post: 797221, member: 558924"] you seem to have your series and parallel wiring confused... [URL="http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/index.html"]http://www.jlaudio.com/tutorials/wiring/index.html[/URL] if you actually had your sub wired in parallel(both +s and -s connected directly to amp) you may have lowered your final impedence too low for your amp...putting it into protect mode. wiring it in series(jumper wire from one coil's + to the other coil's -) raises you impedence and i can't think of any reason your sub would produce no sound with that set up [/QUOTE]
