Wire nuts?

You guys use wire nuts for wiring in the box? Some setups can take alot of wire twists and the works. Just wondering what you guys use...

what are you twisting inside your box that would need twisting wires?

Uh wires... You mean i shouldn't be twisting wires together? I have 2 DVC 4 ohm subs and currently have it setup for a 1 ohm load. I only have 1 terminal cup going out also. I'm scrapping that and setting it up for 1 ohm.

I use wirenuts for my subs - DD's have direct connect.

What do you use then?

Um i don't think people use them because is usually goes into the box via a connection box. Than another piece of wire goes from that to the sub. I don't know why you would even need them. Also some use a wire that goes from the sub thre the box to the amp in one wire with a hole for the wire.

Now, where is the terminal cup?

So, where i have circled is what im going to plug into my terminal cup right?

No there you just put the other wire threw the speaker wire holding terminal for the next speaker. So you will have speaker wires threw one speaker terminal.

no, where it says 1 ohm is where the 2 single wires should be connected to your terminal inside the box.

So how do i connect those two wires that are circled in green?
