4 speaker wire inputs?

I've never seen a mono amp with four places to put speaker wires. Which of the four places would I put the wires from the subwoofers in? The two to the right like in the manual? Would that give 500 rms @ a 2 ohm load?

Amp in question: http://www.amazon.com/Pioneer-GM-D8601-Class-Amplifier-Remote/dp/B00A02QLVA

Or would this amp be better? http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-MRV-M500-Mono-subwoofer-amplifier/dp/B00BMR7UPS

Thanks in advance!

When a mono amp has more than one speaker terminal it doesn't matter which one. Think of it as a distribution block. Just pick a set and your done.

No need to try to "bridge" anything.

Okay, thanks. Sorry, I was in a hurry.

If u use both sets of inputs on a mono amp what it will do is act like you have the two sub woofers wired in parallel.. so say you wire one 4ohm dual voice coil sub to each channel with the coils on the subs wired in parallel it will result in a one ohm load ..idk what they even put two channels on it when its really one channel

You need trunk space to get groceries and shit...bitches love groceries

A little late to the party bud.

They put two sets of speaker outputs to add wiring flexibility and allow larger wire runs without trying to squeeze two larger wires into a smaller connector.
