Hi guys new to the forum and 1st attempt at building a sub box so looking for any info or anything that may be useful

I am unsure of how exactly to wire these up being dual voice cone and having 2 of them and not knowing a lot about dual voice cone subs do I wire them as shown in pic here

Yup, wire them just as you have in your picture for a 2 ohm load. Are you certain you have dual 2 ohm subs?

If I’m being perfectly honest I don’t know a hell of a lot about them as they were bought 2nd hand but everything I do know is what I’ve read in the manuals online and on the subs themselves as shown here

Good deal, yes just wire them like the diagram you linked first and you'll be good to go

Cheers mate do you have any input on the box design shown (obviously given there will be 2 subs not just 1 I will be making 2 boxes and either sticking the 2 ported ends together or the opposite ends together) and port tuning I usually listen to rnb and dance music and from what I’ve read 34 hz is a good tuning for that but I really wouldn’t have a clue lol hence why I’m here from what I’ve seen on this forum there’s quite a lot of knowledgeable people here

Ok so after a little more digging/researching I’ve realised that the amplifier has 2 outputs and rms @ 1 ohm is 1250 watts and a peak of 2500 im assuming that would be shared between both outputs so would I be better off wiring each 1 in parallel to get 1 ohm each and then wiring to seperate outputs? Would this actually give me a 1 ohm impedance for each sub or am I misunderstanding how it all works, or would it be better to wire each in series for 2 ohms since the amp rms @ 2 ohms is 1000watts and the sub rms is 550 watts and wire to seperate outputs not gonna lie I’m getting more and more confused the more I read lmfao

Check with the box calculator and web specs

Is that for the box itself cos if so this link https://subbox.pro/en/design/?bt=2&bw=482.6&bh=431.8&bv=42.5&mt=16&fp=1&sq=1&ss=12&cd=285&md=160&sv=5.9&so=0&sd=101.6&sb=86&sn=Blackair&pt=4&pq=1&rf=34&pd=131.38&pw=2&pa=135.49&pp=0 is to what I have designed on that site but I have no idea how to check if that’s any good or not as I don’t have a computer and that’s the only thing I have been able to find that works on my iPad
