Title pretty much says it all...I was wondering how you guys wired the DVC on your subs. This is how I did it, hopefully I did it right, they are supposed to be wired in parallel.

On a sound note I definitly need to get a bigger box, the box I have has 1 cubic foot per sub and they are struggling. Lots of excursion but not a lot of hit, definitly air space starved. Hopefully I can get a new box built soon.

 

This might help

Looks right. For parallel, you want all the + wired together and all the - together.

 

I cant really tell by looking at that..but i'll try to help ya out.

hope this helps...i got my 2 12" eclipse dvc's wired like this and they pound

unfortunately it wont save the spacing so its' a lil crammed..i tried to edit it and fix it and it wont let me...so if you want me to email the cleaner copy of this send me an email

 

Is this what you meant?

 

Peerrrdy colors..its almost what i meant..i wouldnt "jump" neg and pos between coils...i'd run 2 sets of wires to each speaker...if one coil shorts the way those are wired, the other may cut out (Notice i didnt say will..i said may)..and then you have no sound.

 

You are wrong.

Notice I didn't say may be, I said are.

Either way if one of the coils "shorts" (I didn't know coils wore shorts) the amp will see it as a closed circuit. The amp doesn't care how many wires there are.

 

Hey man you dont gotta be an @ss about it...and short..electrical term ..ya know..like not work..short out...and i wasnt sure..because if one coil goes, current can still flow through the other...i put it that way to save my self from having to listen to someone like you get all cranky..thats why i hardly ever post anymore...people get all upset and jumpy at the stupidest crap.
