I got the speaker wire...Its doubled and 2 toned. Would I just be using that 1 set of wires Or will I need 2 sets of wires for each sub. But then that wouldnt work on a mono 1 channel amp And it wouldnt be bridged right either |

Bronze Member Username: TylermoncriefPost Number: 35 Registered: May-04 | Ok, Let me explain it again Ok, on that link you gave me...Theres the red line...Then there's a red dot where it splits into 2 wires...Speaker wire comes in doubles..One for negative and one for positive (I guess) Would I use both wires on positive & both wires on negative (4 wires total). But only use 1 amp positive & negative terminals (4 wires hooked to 2 terminals) |

Bronze Member Username: TylermoncriefPost Number: 37 Registered: May-04 | thanx bro....I needed to know that but I changed my mind on the 2....Im just going to get a Solo X 12" Is it okay to have 2 amps hooked up, to 1 sub? |
Silver Member Username: TboltCollipark, GA Post Number: 122 Registered: Dec-04 | As long as you dont overpower the sub. It looks pretty hard to do that to a solo x though |

Silver Member Username: TboltCollipark, GA Post Number: 123 Registered: Dec-04 | Both amps have to be 1 ohm stable since its a dual 1 ohm sub. All you do is hook the positive and negative wires of the amps to the positive and negative terminals on the sub. One amp to one voice coil. |
