I got the Aq2200 and thanks for the help choosing its a great amp. Now I thought one channel meant only one hole for a negative sub wire and one for a posative but mine has 2 of each? How should I wire it up? And what should I do with the gain supersonic and other tdials? How far should I turn them?

Hey millz, you are going to want to wire you amplifier to your Pioneer Subwoofers like this below:

Also, make sure that your Subwoofers are wired in Parallel to create a 1 Ohm Load like in the link below:

Furthermore, here is a link to where you can read up on how to tune your new amplifier:

That wring diagram doesn't make sense? It only shows hooking up wires to half the terminals? It leaves out 2 posative and 2 negative which I know you never do? The way I did it was I took both the posatives from one sub wired them down to one wire on each sub then took my 2 new posative wires and wired them down to 1 wire and the same thing with the negatives. Is that right?

I don't know how you don't understand the diagram, but to break it down for you even further, overall you have a total of 4 positive terminals and 4 negative terminals, 2 per subwoofer.

Your overall objective to create a parallel connection is to connect all four positive connections together, and all 4 negative connections together.

many mono amps have two pair of speaker terminals.
they are simply parallel terminals, meaning you just use one pair of terminals for a single sub.
the second set of terminals is just to simplify wiring two subs in parallel to the same amp for a lower impedance load.

internally to the amplifier, it all just looks like one pair of terminals.
