i only got one sub....so do i just split the + into two and the - into two or....run another wire from + to + and another one from - to -? and if i get two subs would i hook it up like a 2ch amp? one sub to each?
Those terminals are connected together inside. I don't know why so many people equate number of terminals with number of channels on amps. It don't work that way.
Well i no on my MB Quart amp it has 2 + and 2 - and in the manual it says that each one is only stable to 2ohms so to get one ohm ive got to hook up a 2ohm load to EACH one to get a 1ohm load. I think it depends on what VC your sub/subs are and what the amp is stable to.
''''''i knew it was a mono but i just wonderin if i had to use both...so it doesnt matter which ones i use right? since they all go to the same place?'''''
The reason for the amp having 2 + and 2 - is for easier connections, on the inside of the amp the + connects to the other + and the - with the -. Say you have 2 DVC 4ohm subs wired to 2ohms each...instead of connecting both subs in paralel on the one terminal, you can just connect both subs to there own terminals... better looking and easy to connect instead of cramming wires in there...
