RE: Kicker vs. Fosgate
not to be a thread *****, but how do you tune your boxes to a specific hz?

RE: Kicker vs. Fosgate
man, to get a good, cheap wiring kit, go to www.sonicelectronix.com they have lots of rf and kicker stuff on there. i'm running a stinger 2guage right now, which is overkill. if i were you, i'd go with an 8guage ground and power. that should be right on the money.

Make another post for that bro.
Here's the basic wiring
If ya need help with that let me know I'll break it down as a step by step.
And no need to thank us. It's what we're here for.

k... thats much easier... so I connect both positives to the same terminal and both negatives to the same terminal...... so I bridge them both on the same terminals? like I was bridging one sub on 2 channels? the amp shows wich positive and negative to use to bridge...

exactly. welcome to the great world of subwoofers.

First we run 1 power line from the + on the amplifier to the + on the first sub.
Next we run 1 more power line from the + on the amplifier to the other + on the second sub
Now time to run a line from the - on the amp to the - on the first sub
Now we do the same thing for the second sub
And we connect the - and the + on the first sub. Thusly raising the ohm load on this voice coil
And do the same thing on the second sub to achieve 2 ohm's

RE: Kicker vs. Fosgate
I always thought running a wire between the + and - on the speaker would short something out.... if the subs are 2 ohm subs I still have to do that? so i would basically have 3 wires on each sub...
one from + on sub to + on amp
one from - on sub to - on amp
one from + on sub to - on sub?
on both subs?
just making sure I understand this correctly

yep. 3 wires.

RE: Kicker vs. Fosgate
Nah doing it like that wont short something out. Cause in the first place theres no signal going through them basically.
And like he said yes 3 wires
And like he said yes 3 wires

k... so ill order 2 2ohm Kicker CVR's and wire them like the diagram... this will give me the deisired results?
