Wiring 3 12” Fosgate Punch HX2’s at 4ohm DVC

[xDATx 10+ year member]

I am trying to wire two subs with normal polarity and one reverse polarity. I have Phoenix Gold Xenon X1200.1, which is 1200Wrms at 4,2,1 ohms. How would I wire this? Please help.

Thanks

series each pair of coils up to 8 ohm, then wire them all down to 2.66... if you invert one of the subs just flip the + and - where it goes into the amp and it will be "in phase" with the others

so your saying wire first to 8ohms then when i invert one it will drop to 2.66ohm?

no, your subs have two coils each, wire them in series to make that one coil of 8 ohms, now if you have three 8 ohm coils/subs left, wire them all in parallel to get to 2.66 ohms, and just flip the speaker wire polarity on the inverted one and you will be ballin

i think i get it, but i somewhat new to this. maybe a pic diagram would help me more...

and go down to

3 DVC drivers with Voice Coils in Series / Parallel

and just remember everything is the same just flip the **** polarity if you are deadset on inverting!

So if just want to invert one polarity, i just invert where i highlighted in the pic below?

thats a negative, i think lol

so negative, as a no no? or your asking me?

i would take the two remaining wires coming from teh sub and inverse the polarity there

lol, i am sooo confused.

but, i want to invert one sub. would it be possible to draw your example. i know i am asking too much, i trying to learn. please excuse.
