The following diagrams are the most popular wiring configurations when using Dual voice coil woofers. They
show a typical single channel wiring scheme. Check the amplifier’s owners manual for minimum impedance
the amplifier will handle before hooking up the speakers. Remember: 4 Ohm mono is equivalent to 2 Ohm
