Wiring 2 W6v2's to JL 1000/1

[Cshread 10+ year member]

Im trying to figure out the best way to hookup my new 12W6v2's to a 1000/1, would i go want to go 4ohms or 2? And i would want to do this in series/parallel





correct? And does anyone have suggestions as to how to tune the gain and what not?

What coils do your w6's have, dual2 or dual4?

i don't think it would matter would it?

i think jl amps give you the same power at any impedance

so wether you do em parallel or series they will still get 500w each

the jl amp has two positives & two negative terminals

thats just because it can be wired down to 1 ohm as well

they dont take 1 ohm, 1.5 is the lowest

oh yeah! thats true

okay so if your subs are dual 4 ohm therefore wire them for a 4 ohm final impedance

just like in your diagram!
