How To Wire 2 12''s To 1 Ohm

[pur3fknpawah]

My amp is 1ohm stable

2 DVC 4ohm Alpine Type R's

Ive seen the rockford fosgate How to guide but it looks like they make you waste speaker wire.

So i just hook up all the positives together and all the negatives together on both subs. And then connect 1 + and - to one sub and hook it up to the + - on my amp right?

My install is finally 2mm. got everything i need except my Headunit install kit that will be here 2mm.

first of all, what is 2mm? and yes, wire all positives to the positive terminal on the amp. then wire all the negatives to the negative terminal on the amp.

Tomorrow. = 2mm Sorry im lazy

But connect all POS and NEG to the AMP or connect them to the 1st sub?

If i can connect them 2 the amp that would be great.

Yea thats the one from rockford its very helpful but i dont get the point to the 2 extra wire's running from the side's. Is that a must or just to describe it for noobs like me better.

yes otherwise your other voice coil is worthless.

Hmm so i can actually have 4 total wires (2 postive 2 negative) onto 1channel of my amp and still get a 1ohm load.

Sorry im being a dumbass but i just wanna make sure ;_;

1 ohm load right?

yea...u those wires on the sides of each sub knock the impedance down to 2ohm/sub, then u wire them together and it goes down to 1ohm...u must do it like that...no other options really unless ur amp parallels the wiring inside like mine does

correct
