Tried a quick search but couldn't find anything. Just need some help for putting my sub + amp in 2morw. All the wiring is in.
Just need to know how to wire amp to sub, i know where the remote and rca and earth go but for the speaker wires from amp 2 sub where do they go? There is a 'bridged' bit with -L+ and -R+ and a +12v so where does the speaker cable fgo into the amp? 1 in L- and 1 in R+ ??? I'm confused. lol.
Anybody give me some quick help?
Also, is it best not to run rca and power cable together down the door sill?

Cheers

The '+12v' is where the power cable go...

As for the sub, I'm assuming you have a 2 channel amp... as you're running one sub, you'll need to bridge both channels...

So connect where it indicates 'Bridged' in the '-' and '+'

Does that make sense?

Yeh sorry. was being stupid, just realised about the +12v. lol

So the to -ve's go to -ve on the sub and 2 +ve's on amp go to + on sub?

The switch thing should be set to 'lp' I believe (low pass)

Exactly what i was looking for :-) Thanks!
First sub, was just making sure everything was ok.
So do i leave the crossover switch at off or does it have to be changed?

low pass and hi pass...


But they're usually...

LPF - low pass filter
HPF - high pass filter

used for blocking out certain frequencies I believe...
