Don't forget that EACH sub has TWO 4OHM voicecoils. And he wants to wire those two subs together.

4OHM:

1. SUB 1- Wire the voicecoils in parallel. (Wire the two POSITIVES together. Same with the NEGATIVE) The sub is now a 2OHM sub.

2. Sub 2- Wire the voicecoils in parallel. (Wire the two POSITIVES together. Same with the NEGATIVE) The sub is now a 2OHM sub.

3. Take the POSITIVE from Sub 1, and connect it with the NEGATIVE of Sub 2.

4. Take the NEGATIVE from Sub 1, and connect it with the NEGATIVE on the amp.

5. Take the POSITIVE from Sub 2, and connect it with the POSITIVE on the amp.

1OHM:

1. SUB 1- Wire the voicecoils in parallel. (Wire the two POSITIVES together. Same with the NEGATIVE) The sub is now a 2OHM sub.

2. Sub 2- Wire the voicecoils in parallel. (Wire the two POSITIVES together. Same with the NEGATIVE) The sub is now a 2OHM sub.

3. Take the POSITIVE from both subs, and wire them to the POSITIVE on the amp.

4. Take the NEGATIVE from both subs, and wire them to the NEGATIVE on the amp.
