Step-by-step

How to wire it.

  1. 01For each sub, connect voice coil 1 positive (+) to voice coil 2 positive (+). Connect voice coil 1 negative (−) to voice coil 2 negative (−). The two bridged terminals become that sub's single effective + and − terminals.
  2. 02Split the 12 subs into 2 groups of 6.
  3. 03Within each group, wire the 6 subs in series (− of one to + of the next).
  4. 04Connect the starting + of each group to a common + point, then to the amplifier's + terminal.
  5. 05Connect the ending − of each group to a common − point, then to the amplifier's − terminal.
