@TheRandomHandyman

If there is 2 sets of terminals , but the amp is a mono block amp then those terminals connect to the same thing inside of the amp so it would be the same as working together in one terminal if you put them separate . Some amps have more connection spots so you don’t have to try to cram 2 sets of wires in. If it’s a 1 channel amp though it will not be separate

@@lim3059 if your subs at dual 4 ohm. And you wire them to 1 ohm your amp will output whatever it’s 1 ohm rating is so if that would be 1000 you would figure each sub would see around 500 each if they are rated for 750 rms each then 500 would be super safe. Now it is possible to burn a sub up or blow a sub up without over powering it, for example you can have a sub that is rated for 1000 watts and only have a 200 watt amp and still blow the sub if the gain is turned all the way up and clipping dirty power and also voltage drop from poor electrical in vehicle can also be an issue but at 1000 watts your all good should be no power drop issue and as long as you gain on amp isn’t cranked all the way up and distorting you will be perfectly fine

lolo ent no, 2 dual 2 subs can be wired to 4ohm, 2 ohm or .5 ohm the only way you can wire 2 2ohm subs to 1 ohm is if they are single voice coil subs. I have other videos with some dual 2 subs wired to .5 ohm. And if someone had 2 dual 4 subs they would probably be more willing to use a little wire than to buy another set of subs to save 4ft of wire the price difference would be made up quickly. But yea there is ways to accomplish the same ohm load with less wire on these subs I just prefer to wire this way for equal power rather than going in one side. But typically whenever you decide you want speakers you will figure out how many you will be useing and say ok I have room for 2 or 4 and then figure out how many you can of what ohm load to be wired to 1 ohm usually that is the desired load as it is safe for most amps rather than .5 and if you are at 2 ohm u won’t get full power potential from 1 ohm stable amp. But to answer your question you would need 2 single voice coil 2 ohm subs to wire to 1 ohm as simple as possible but there are other differences when going from single to dual .
