Run a wire to positive on one coil do the same to negative on other coil then take a single wire and hook the remaining positive & negative connectors together with single wire it should yield a 4 ohm load

SOURCE: wiring diagram

The LEd wires need a wire run from the speaker to the Fuse block in your car. The small Red wire from the LED will be the one that hooks to Swtiched 12 Volts supply on the fuse block so that your Led Turns on when you turn the keyswitch on. The Black wire goes to ground, or to a metal part of your cars body, probably the same point where your Amp is Grounded.

The Octane R10 is a Single Voice Coil or SVC.
AMP+ to Sub+
Amp- to Sub -
Use 12 guage wire.

SOURCE: Lose wire with 6Wires connector... need diagrams of pin out

(There are different versions of the ba-200, so I'm assuming they al use the same wiring/pinout...) if you look at the amp on the enclosure(right-side up... so the writin goes left->right): The top left pin is #1, beside it is #2, then #3. The bottom left pin is #4, beside it is #5, then #6. #1 Right speaker positive input #2 Empty #3 12 Volt Constant Power #4 Left speaker positive input #5 Remote turn on / Acc power input #6 Ground Now there's supposed to be a 15-amp fuse on pin #3 (12v constan power).

SOURCE: How do i wire two 15 inch subs to 2 ohms

Hello familia_gome,

Those MOFO-15's have dual 1ω voice coils. So the only way you can get 2 of them to present a 2ω load is to use 1 voice coil on each one with the two of them wired in series. Using both voice coils, you can get a 1/4ω load by wiring the voice coils in parallel and then wiring the subs themselves in parallel. You'll get a 1ω load with the voice coils in series and then parallel the subs. Or you'll get a 4ω load with both the voice coils and the subs in series.

Here's a link to Power Acoustik's PDF for the MOFO's. I recommend that you check out the wiring diagrams on page 3.

Hope this helps.

SOURCE: How do i wire two fifteen inch subs to 2 ohms

Hello familia_gome,

If you have 2 subs that are 2 ohms, the final impedance will be either 1 ohm if they are wired in parallel or 4 ohms if they are wired in series. You cannot get a final load of 2 ohms. Unless your amp is stable down to 1 ohm (many amps are not), your best solution would be to wire the subs in series, positive of one sub to the negative of the other sub, and the remaining positive and negative to the amp. Yes, this will result in a 4 ohm load and the amp power will be reduced. But it is better than destroying your amp with too low of a load, and the subs will work fine, just not as loud.

SOURCE: need wiring diagram for sub

u should have two pos, an two neg. on the back of the sub run a wire from one pos to the other same with neg. now just run a pos an neg from the box to one side of the sub u should have one side with two wires runing to the pos. an neg. if u need more help let me know [email protected]

Need help wiring two 10" alpine type E subs to a alpine 500 watt monoblock amp

Just connect both sets of wires from the subwoofers to the same speaker output terminals on the amplifier. Make sure you keep the positive and negative wires together. This is called parallel wiring. The Type E is a 4-ohm, single voice coil subwoofer, so wiring them like this will give the amplifier a 2-ohm load, and the power produced will be divided between the two subs.

I have Boss ar2400 4 channel amplifire.. I had connect two 15" kicker subs in bridge circuit. When i run the system it gets overheat in half an hour and goes into the protection mode. How can i solve this...

Problem is one of four things:
  • Impedance (ohm resistance) of the speakers you are using is below the amplifier's rating for operating in bridge mode;
  • You are driving the speakers at a volume exceeding the maximum power output of the amplifier;
  • The gauge of the wires you are using to connect the amplifier to the speakers is too small;
  • The gauge of the power supply wires is too small, and/or you are not using a large enough reserve capacitor at the power input
Possible solutions:
  1. If your Kicker subs are rated at 4 Ohms, and you are using them in monoblock configuration with the speakers wired in parallel (all + terminals to the + bridge output and all - terminals to the - bridge output), try either configuring your bridge circuit in a paired bridge, where a pair of amplifier outputs are bridged, each bridged pair driving a single speaker; or if your Kicker subs are rated at 2 Ohms, use a monoblock bridge driving the speakers in series (+ bridge output to + of one speaker, - of that speaker connected to the + of the other speaker, and = of that speaker connected to - of the bridge output);
  2. Turn the amplifier output down (but this is likely NOT the issue)
  3. Use speaker wire that is no smaller than 8 gauge for your application. 4 or 2 gauge wire would be slightly better but not worth the additional expense;
  4. Your power supply wire should be equal in size or larger than your speaker connector wire. Use no smaller than 8 gauge for your application. Also, use a capacitor no smaller than 2 Farads wired across the power supply input to the amplifier to compensate for pulse surges and car power dips. For your application a large capacitor will work better than an auxiliary battery or gel cell.

Hifonics colossus-ltd dual monoblock amp does not have much output, running a cerwin vega stroker dual 2 ohm sub wired 4 ohm load bridged

Bridge at 4ohms your only getting 600watts rms. You will need to bridge at 1ohm (parallel) and adjust the gain accordingly. This will give it 1600 watts rms. If you would of had a dual 4ohm sub, then you could of bridged it at 2ohms mono, but you can't you have to go either 1 ohm or 4ohm. I believe it's not getting enough power.

Sub wiring monoblock amp two pos two neg which one to use

well if the amp is a mono block for sure you just choose any combination of 1 positive and 1 negative to wire your subs. They are actually summed inside the amp. meaning both positives go to the same terminal inside and both negatives to the same negative on the inside. It's just that way for ease of wiring in high wattage and multi sub systems

Need proper wiring details.

This is a dual 4 ohm sub. By wiring the terminals in series (one set of + to - from one side to the other) you will have an 8 ohm sub (most folks probably don't want this). By wiring in parallel (+ to + and - to - and connect the - wire to the - terminal on your amp and the + wire to the + terminal on your amp you'll have a 2 ohm sub.

2 ohm dvc and monoblock sub amp

Yes. When you run two-two ohm subs to a monoblock amp its on the same channel meaning there ran parallel, and that makes it one ohm and most mono-blocks won't read one ohm. Are you popping fuses in the amp?

Bridging to 12 inch kicker competition subs to my 1000 watt alpine 4 channel amp

I'm a bit confused. For Alpine amps, the "M" prefix is for monoblock (aka single channel) amps and the "F" prefix is for multichannel amps. The only M550 I find is an MRD-M550, which is a monoblock, not a 4 channel like you say.
Unfortunately, I can't give you accurate help until we know weather it's truly 1 channel or 4 channel. Then I'll be glad to help!
