[QUOTE="Golitan11, post: 8159072, member: 655724"] I have a Sundown SA-12 D2 wired in parallel (@1 ohm) and I figured out I did it wrong. In other words, for the jumper cables, I used KnuKonceptz Karma SS 12 gauge (because this is what I got) but two wires (from the first voicecoil and to the amplifier) at the same time were not fitting in the subwoofer terminals. So I decided, because I am a genius and I just wanted to finish as quick as possible to hear it (bad idea), to strip the wires coming from the first voicecoil twice as long as it should to be able to insert them into the second voicecoil terminals, and then to twist and tape the end of the wires coming from the amplifier to the extra bare wire of the jumper cables (this is why I stripped them twice as long). It is working, but I am trying to figure out for how long. Since I screwed my subwoofer and everything is in place, can I just keep this like that? Is it in some way dangerous? Thanks. P.S. I also did this for all my headunit wire harness but I guess I can redo it because it is accessible, so no problem there. [/QUOTE]
