Step-by-step

How to wire it.

  1. 01Split the 8 subs into 2 groups of 4.
  2. 02Within each group, wire the 4 subs in series (− of one to + of the next).
  3. 03Connect the starting + of each group to a common + point, then to the amplifier's + terminal.
  4. 04Connect the ending − of each group to a common − point, then to the amplifier's − terminal.
