Skax Posted January 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Wire each woofer in series, then wire the pair in parallel. Like this. i guess my confusion is and a dumb one is the second sub doesnt have to be actually hooked up directly from the amp?so i will have one terminal on the back of the box with nothing in it?? 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Could you re-phrase that? ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skax Posted January 2, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Could you re-phrase that? like do i have to have only 1 sub hooked into the amp and the other one jumps off of it or both need to be hooked to it? 2002 Mustang GT Procharged Procharger P1SC Supercharger, 8psi Procharger Intercooler, Headers, Borla Off Road X-Pipe Exhaust, Mass Airflow Upgraded Fuel Injectors SCT Flash Chip (Excaliber II), Throttle Body, Lowering Springs, Carbon Fiber Hood -Front 275/40ZR17 -Rear 315/35ZR17 5.0 Short Shifter 3.55 Gears Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osiris10012 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 If you have a separate terminals for both subs you would wire them the same as the second diagram in this link (http://www.the12volt.com/caraudio/woofer_configurations.asp~Q~1~I~22), Then you would wire both positives on the terminals together then connect it to the amp, then you would wire both negatives on the terminals together then connect it to the amp. I hope that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnowDrifter Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 As long as the wires are connected. Either directly at the amp or through other means ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Facekicker Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 to unconfuse you maybe: take both subs out of the box and unwire them if they are pre wired or whatever. connect a wire that leads from the + of SUB#1 A over to the + of SUB #2 A connect a wire that leads from the - of sub #1 B over to the - of SUB #2 B connect another wire to the - of first coil to + of other coil. repeat on other sub. now both subs are connected Hopefully you did this through the box add another + wire from one of the subs and lead it to the + of one of the box terminals. take the - from the same sub to the - of the same box terminal. screw subs down wire from amp to the same box terminal you used. if there was another box terminal you can ignore it. boom. edit: dvc 2002 Monte Carlo Started a build log Fi, DC, Mechman, XS Power Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
