Subwoofer wiring job help...

[AnthonyF]

I have a 15" Kicker CVR that I want to mount in my car for a little bump. I have a 2 channel amp I will probably bridge for the 1 15". My problem is, the sub has 4 terminals on it. 2 red (+) and 2 black (-). How do I wired it up to the box terminals? Does anyone have a diagram i can use as reference? Thanks and reps for the help!

*edit*

oh you have a dual voice coil sub...nvm

^you can, but the subwoofer sometimes is setup different. And I believe there are 2 different ways of wiring it up for different subwoofer setups. LIke it will hit different.

naw i was thinking you were talking about from the amp to the sub...but you are bridging the amp (using one positive and one negative from the amp to bridge) and the sub is dual voice coil, so you have two terminals on that also..i THINK you can do the same w/ the voice coil, but i'm not sure..PM dracc, i think he knows

that works if the sub is dual 2 ohm. If the sub is dual 4 ohm, it really isnt going to work well with your amp.

Stop,First what ohm load stable is your amp?
Second what ohm load is your sub?

If you have a amp that is 2 ohm stable and a dual 4ohm sub then you run it in series.
If you have a 2 or 4 ohm sub and a am that can only run 4ohm mono(bridged) and 2 ohm stero then you also have some options.

If you need any real help or a walk through shoot me a pm with your phone #.
