Wiring with directly connected leads

[cheeto 10+ year member]

I just about got finished finally mounting the AQ sd2.515 in its box, but ran into a problem. I had the black and red wires twisted together for the 2 ohm load, but I had a hell of a lot of trouble trying to use a short length of speaker wire inside the box (so it doesn't rattle up against the box when it hits, or is that wrong?) and connecting the 3 wires together...

anyone got pics? That would help my noobness out a lot.

how can connecting 2 wires be made so complicated?

wire nuts? electrical tape?

nope, simple solution, the idiot.

Ok, I guess the question really is this - if I make the speaker wire longer inside the box, would there be a rattling noise of the wire hitting the box when the sub kicked? or is that not an issue at all?

Well shit then that solves all the problems. I was pissed when I made that post so that's half the reason it was so dumb. I was just having trouble working with the short length of wire, holding the sub up, and trying to tie it all together. so yeah.

Read the first post dickbutt, clearly states that I have an AQ SD2.515... just inexperienced with building boxes.
