DieselPB Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 Well, I have a couple questions. 1.What's the best way to cut 4 to 0 guage wire? 2. When wiring a 4 ohm DVC to 2 ohm, I read that you put to wires in one of the terminals for both positive and negitive. Am I supposed to put the two wires just bare in the terminal, or am I supposed to put the two wires into one banana plug? I want to use 12 to 10 guage for the sub wires.
baaudio Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 You can just put them in bare and crush them with the terminal posts. And to cut wire go buy some large gauge wire cutters from home depot/lowes/sears they will be your best friend. Klein is my preferred brand.

Hotdog Posted June 14, 2010 Report Posted June 14, 2010 For cutting 1/0 best thing I found is a sharp pair of scissors.. cuts threw the jacket pretty easily.
