AKBass Posted June 18, 2010 Report Share Posted June 18, 2010 strip the speaker wires longer make sure ALL three are touching equally and good then put your wire nut back or use a bluewire nut(they are very big or a yellow one) and fold the combined wires in half then tighten your wire nut. Disclaimer: I'm not suggesting you use wire nuts but it seems as though thats what you want to use(I use them for box testing and have never had a problem, and i use them in homes, commercial jobs, pretty much anywhere your combining wires in a electrical system 120 or 240) Current Ford F350 Alpine IVA-W505 2x Diamond s600 1x Diamond S400 2x RF T1500-1BD 1x RF T600-4 2x AA Havoc 12" DC Power 230XP 1/0 throughout Up Next 95 2dr Tahoe Head Unit= Alpine IVA-W505 Components= 2 Diamond S400, 2 Diamond S500, 2 Diamond S600 Woofers= 2 10" Diamond Hex, 2 12" Diamond D9 Amps= 3 RF T1000-4 Processor= 2 RF 3sixty.2 Subs= 4 18" AA Mayhem Amps 4 RF T2500-1 BDCP 7 XS Power D3100 3 DC Power 270+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
