Gold Member Username: BestmankindFi Audio BTL Post Number: 8671 Registered: Oct-05 | what do you mean. that pic is basically doing the same thing. just connect both +'s together and both -'s together on each sub. then connect together + from one side of one sub to the + from one side of the other sub and then in to the + on the amp. do the same for the -. |
