It just has 2+ and 2- on the side to allow you to wire multiple subs to it easily. They are connected internally. When it says 2ohm linked, it means when you have to amps. You bridge those 2 amps together at 2ohm and each amp actually sees 1ohm. Just wore your DVC 2ohm sub to 1ohm and hook it to 1+ and 1- on the amp. Thats it. |
