Subwoofer Help

So I got my system all wired up for a 1 ohm load... dual 4 voice coil, mtx 9500... When I turn the gain 3/4's way up, it bounces a lil and is distorted, the amp is powering on... theres 2 places for rca's a left and right, ones input and the other output, it goes in the input right?

how did you manage to get a 1 ohm load from a dual 4 ohm voicecoil?

2 ohm load sorry

your gain is too high and your speakers are most likly clipping.

turn it down. or turn your bassboost down.

I tried that, my gain turned down also, not getting anything.... Now theres a option on my 1510d amp.... says speaker 1 + and - and then speaker 2 + and - what I read in the manual looks like the negative should be ran to the negative on speaker 1 on the amp and the postive on speaker 2 on the amp?
