Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 554 Registered: Dec-06 | You will only be using one terminal on the back of the box.  |

Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 556 Registered: Dec-06 | Make sense? |

Bronze Member Username: SplsqChesterland , Ohio USA Post Number: 73 Registered: Mar-07 | So alls i have to do is wire it to one side of the box and is the amp gonna fry or somethin cause its not mine. o yea and does regular speaker why work u no if i split it in half. its 18 guage or somethin like that. |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 558 Registered: Dec-06 | Yes, wire it to one side of the box. As for the wire, it should be ok but if you have bigger, use it. But to answer your first question, no it will not fry if you wire it like the diamgram before. |

Bronze Member Username: SplsqChesterland , Ohio USA Post Number: 74 Registered: Mar-07 | um k i will go out and do that no and ill tell u how it goes pray i dont kill myself or somethin or blow the subs |
|
Bronze Member Username: SplsqChesterland , Ohio USA Post Number: 75 Registered: Mar-07 | ok wait i found a problem its a sealed box and i cant run wires to the other side of the box |
|
Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 559 Registered: Dec-06 | Alright...give me a second to type up a little explanation... |
|
Bronze Member Username: SplsqChesterland , Ohio USA Post Number: 76 Registered: Mar-07 | okkk wait i think i might have figured it out on the back of of the subs there is 1 red with a white dot and on black with a white dot and the the 1 red and black. so what i think to run in in series wiring alls i have to do is connect the red/white to the black and then the black/white to the red and then into the onside of the terminal and then do the same for the other. |

Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 561 Registered: Dec-06 | Still follow the diagram I gave you as you go thru this (references to "first sub" are the right side of the diagram). OK, first the internal... 1) wire positive #1 of first sub to negative #1 of the first sub 2) wire positive #1 of second sub to negative #1 of the second sub 3) wire postive #2 of the first sub to the positive terminal on its side 4) wire negative #2 on the first sub to the negative terminal on its side 5) wire postive #2 of the second sub to the positive terminal on its side 4) wire negative #2 on the second sub to the negative terminal on its side Second, the external... 1) wire the positive of terminal #1 to the positive of terminal #2 2) wire the negative of terminal #1 to the negative of terminal #2 3) wire the positive of terminal #2 to the positive of the amp 4) wire the negative of terminal #2 to the negative of the amp OK? |

Silver Member Username: MgbcsLincoln, Nebraska Post Number: 562 Registered: Dec-06 | I don't know what kind of terminals you have man. Whatever you have to do to secure them do it. It may mean soldering or something, but they have to connect. |
