[QUOTE="Umbra, post: 8339633, member: 658055"] [URL="http://a248.e.akamai.net/pix.crutchfield.com/ca/learningcenter/car/subwoofer_wiring/2-DVC-4-ohm-mono-low-imp.jpg"][/URL] Here's the diagram you want. However, once you throw a box into the mix it becomes harder to visualize. Basically you'll want to wire every positive together and every negative together. That'll wire both your coils and subs in parallel. Check out this thread: [URL="http:////forums/wiring-electrical-installation-help/611324-wiring-question-subwoofer-amplifier-if-enclosure-has-divided-sections-sub.html#post8645886."]http://www.caraudio.com/forums/wiring-electrical-installation-help/611324-wiring-question-subwoofer-amplifier-if-enclosure-has-divided-sections-sub.html#post8645886.[/URL] In it we were wiring two SVC subs together, but we illustrate there are several ways to wire a box with terminals to the amp to ultimately achieve the same thing. And like CSCStang suggested, checking it with a DMM definitely couldn't hurt, especially if you're not sure. They're extremely useful and dirt cheap, especially compared to the cost of replacing damaged gear. [/QUOTE]
