Series Wiring
I have a Dual Voice Coil 2OHM sub (It's a Kicker CVR), but i'm running into a problem with the diagrams...I want series wiring for a 4 OHM load on the amp, but how do I hook second set of wires up (The ones that don't go to the amp)....
Positive to positive and negative to negative? That won't complete the circuit though, so the voice coils won't work...hook them together with one wire? I'm guessing here!

Re: Series Wiring
hook it up just like the diagram shows. the + and - with 2ohm written between them are each a coil. the signal passes through one coil then through the other coil.

Re: Series Wiring
So Use 2 different wires (+,-) for the positive and negative? Or one wire to connect the coils?

Re: Series Wiring
Positive from the amp to positive on one coil, then negative from the coil to positive to the other coil, then negative from the other coil to the amp, just like the diagram. Series wiring is just that wired in series, you need 3 pieces of speaker wire.
