You guys know the amp im talkin about? It has the 2 sets of + and - for the speaker wires even though its a mono amp. I have the woofers wiring for 4 ohms inside the box, i never removed them. I have 2 questions though.

When wiring them for 4 ohm (2 dvc 4 ohm subs) Do i end up only using the power wire from one sub or do I use a power wire from both subs. same with the grounds.

Its been forever since I messed with car audio lol.

Right now I have the 2 power wires in the back of the box connected together and to a wire that goes to the amp and the same with the grounds.

I'm not really sure what your talking about, I'm half asleep. They just outputs like a 2 channel amp to make it easier to wire, they're connected internally (mono.)

Those amps like it when you use both lefts/rights (4 total), pick up a pair of y's and you'll get a decent gain of output....
