Connecting Two 8awg Wires To On Terminal


Recommended Posts

I was wondering how yall would connect two runs of 8 awg to a single terminal shown below.

I was thinking I could splice into the main wire coming from the amp then run it to the other terminal?

could do a number of things

could put in a T from one wire to 2 out to sub or you could just run 2 wires to the amp or you could try and shove it in the terminal

0 gauge wire ran to the subs they just trimmed it down a little

Well I bought these in hopes of connecting 2 runs through the side terminals of these banana plugs. One on each side.

and the 8 awg does not fit in the rear entry...I had to trim like 3 out of 8 twists of wire to even barely fit.

...What subs are these?..

And about the wiring...Just run 4 seperate 8 awg runs to the sub, then connect both positives and both negetives at the terminal (bolt) on the box. Or if you just want to run the wire through the box, just trim a little off of each.

and for the OP if you want it to be a nice install clean and all this crap use a distro block on the outside of your box from one wire going out to 2 to the subs

Just strip like an inch of insulation and get 3 zip ties, let the wires unravel completely, mash them together, then zip-tie it, keep tightening the zipties for a couple of hours and they'll eventually mash together into something the size of 1 8ga. Add lots of tape :)
