Are those both positive ends? and I've never seen a sub with 3 terminals on one end....you shouldn't be having both positive and negatve going to ONE voice coil....bad.

Okay. Let me break it down. I have four posts on each voice coil. I have a wire from one voice coil's positive to the othe vc's pos. Then I have one a wire from one vc's neg. to the other vc's neg. Then from one vc I have a pos. wire to the box terminal then to the pos. on the amp. Then from the other vc I have a neg. wire to the box terminal then to the neg. on the amp. Does this clear things up? I am trying to run parallel/parallel. Dual 6ohn vc. The amp will see 1.5Ohms.Upload

i dont think that you can make a 1.5ohm load like that. If you want 1.5ohms you need to it wire each sub paralle into 2 channels. If you still want it as a single channel set up you will either get 3 ohms or .75. Here is a drawing for the 3 ohmUpload

OK. THEY WORK. Figured out that it was just the wiring. Had them wired wrong. I think I had some of the pos and negs mixed up also. Thank you all for all of your help!
