Joshua Dumas Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 So i just got my q1 1200d amp today and i need help wiring it. I have 2 dvc subs that i have wired down to 2 ohms but when everything is all plugged in it doesnt sound right. What confuses me is that the amp has outputs like this : (neg) (neg) (pos) (pos) Im assuming the first negative goes to the first positive? and the second negative goes to the second positive? Also i know you guys are going to say that i need to properly set the gain and i have a pretty good idea on how to. Plus the bass dial that came with the amp has a red light that comes on when the amp is clipping. Any help is appriciated thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith77 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 What ohm are your subs? http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that. Your name is winston. Your own parents hated you even before you were born. My penis is bigger than your penis I'm far from loud and my roof/headliner flaps around like Adam's ass on a windy day. I think it depends more on the structure of the vehicle.

Joshua Dumas Posted July 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 2 ohm. but what i dont understand about that diagram is that they only have one positive and one negative output going to the subs. thats why im confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith77 Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 cause they are all wired to each other in side the box. Or you could run each voice coil to a connection (bolt) on the box and use jumper wires to get desired load. Ill see if I can find a pic of what I mean. Just need to fallow that diagram to what load you want. On the amp you just need to use on (-) and one (+) no need to use both. Thats cool. Im way too old to be upset by shit like that.

Inside the box i have 1 (neg) - goes to negative terminal 1 on sub 1 2 (neg) - goes to second negative terminal 1 on sub 2 1 (pos) - goes to the positive terminal 1 on sub 1 2 (pos) - goes to second positive terminal 1 on sub 2 and a Wire from negative terminal 2 to positive terminal 2 on both subs.
