Help with wiring!!

[CDMullins]

Got amps wired up fine and 1 of thems running a set of 6x9s.

2nd amp as power and all connections are good but i cannot get the subs to work.

4 channel amp, Im an ice amature so dont know my technical stuff, so i drew a couple of diagrams!!

Plz help is driving me mad!!

take the link off the sub that is acting as a dead short(top one in pic)

what is the resistance of the coils of the sub??

it needs to be wired to 4 ohms to run it off the bridged channel of the amp

Youve lost me mate. Ice really not my thing!

 

[Dink]

lol

model number of subs???

 

[CDMullins]

Dont know and bx and cars at my mates.

Think aw15 for some reason, 12" 400w rms if that helps

Hmmmm, yeh could be that one??

Whats best way to wire it up then

 

[Dink]

get a different amp

one with the about 900wRms @ 1 ohm

like this

 

[CDMullins]

Is there no way of that amp working???
Cant afford another amp

sorry for the spam but i love that install

 

[CDMullins]

Dont worry about it!!
cheers!

yeah wire it to 8 ohms + from amp to +on voice coil 1 then a wire from - on voice coil 1 to + on voice coil 2 then - on voice coil 2 back to amp

then connect the wires to bridged across ch1&2

repeat for other sub but use ch3&4
