[QUOTE="nickjoy92, post: 6775818, member: 620698"] Ok first off I no how to install car audio to an extent but I don't no alot of technical audio terms so when you help me try to explain a little. I have a alpine cda-105, 2 alpine type r 2 ohm 12 inch subs in a sealed box powered by a mrp-m1000 amp and I used to just have 1 of the subs powered by the alpine 500 watt amp. So when I added the second sub I just put the banana plugs in the second sub the same way as the the first one not thinking it would be different but after the install I read the directions I know dumb. And when I read the directions I found that I have them wired up like its only 1 sub wired at 1 ohm. But instead of being an easy fix it looks like its almost impossible to properly wire my subs because My sub box is a dual chamber sealed box like shown in the picture so i cant run wire from sub to sub i can only run wires from each sub tot he terminals on the back of the box. picture of my box V [IMG]http://i34.photobucket.com/albums/d135/nickpb1992/box.jpg?t=1269845878[/IMG] scanned instructions for my subs the red outlined part of the instructions is how I want the subs wired and the yellow outlined part is how they are wired except theres 2 subs and i have 2 sets of wires going into my amp instead of just one. and as you can see in the red part wires are going from one sub to the other but I cant run wires like that because each sub has its own chamber any help is apritiated.
