i wired 2 orion 1200D's to my XXX 12, it was kinda complicated. i had to run a wrie from the neg on the slave amp to the neg on my master amp and switch the slave amp to 180 degrees out of phase and run pos terminals to the neg on the sub and on the master amp run the pos terminals to pos on the sub. each amp had 2 negs and 2 pos terminals. and as for rca's i just ran a short rca from the pass through on the master to the input on the slave.

marshall can prolly explain it a lil better, he helped me hook it up. but we just followed wut the manual said.
