helppp!! not new to car audio but stuck on this...

[killakilck123]

I have no idea about that stuff... i have a memphis car audio 8 awg kit.. those rcas came with it.. how do i check all that stuff?

I am also confused as to why the box is not firing backwards.

You have to have an idea of how the amp is connected to the receiver? You have it connected.

 

[zumbo]

Your receiver has a 2Volt output. You also need to be sure you have your amp is set to 2V. Page 8 in your manual, or the link I posted.

 

[zumbo]

I can't find any information on how your receiver designates it's SW output. It looks to have a r/l. I have no idea if that is a dual mono output, or not.

My best advice is to get a 1 female 2 male rca y-cable. Connect the white rca from your receiver into the female end of the y-cable. Leave the red end hanging. Connect both male ends of the rca y-cable to the amp.

It's a very simple explanation at the bottom of page 6.

i glued everything except the top bcuz i need to be able to take it off to get the speakers out to paint it.. ok well i have it on 1 and 4 and then 2 and 3 so ill have to fix that.. does that make it not 2 ohms the way i have it?

also this is my headunit if that what the reciever is..

i have the rca in the sub wires that stick out and the blue primary wire running to the back where the manual said to put it

You can glue the top onto the enclosure and still get the woofers out. They are mounted to the front baffle. The enclosure MUST be completely constructed to perform properly.

Here is a tutorial on how to properly wire a series parallel connection (second example down on the left).

He has SVC subs.

And an unusual amp. Bottom of page 6. Third time to post. It's a MONO amp with four posts.

He has SVC subs.

Single 2 ohm or single 4 ohm? I thought he was doing a DVC subwoofer here?

Also, is the amplifier Mono or multichannel?? The manual you posted was for a 4 channel amplifier? I assume this is indeed a mono amplifier.

If the amplifier is for sure mono, as long as each woofer + and - go to a + and - on the amplifier it will not matter which ones as they are all on the same connecting block. Just need to be sure the + is to + and - to -.

See here: first one down on the right.

Have you forgot the whole thread?

He has two 4ohm SVC subs for a parallel connection to achieve a 2ohm load.

The link is for several amps. His is on page 6. HF1000D. It's a MONO amp with four posts. Every time I post, I say PAGE 6.

Two woofers in parallel at the bottom left of PAGE 6.

It's just giving you a simple place to connect all the wires.

Nothing complicated.

Page six in your link was for a Hi-fonics HFi100.4/HFi55.4 4 channel amplifier. The HFi1000d is on page 8 of the PDF.

I must have misunderstood as I thought he was doing dual 2 ohm subs. No worries there.

 

[killakilck123]

ok well i did what you said on page 6.. ok i will glue the whole thing. everything is hooked up.. the amp is connected to the reciever the way i said... there is a primary blue wire from amp to blue wire on head unit.. the head unit has to plugs that say sub out or something like that with sub it mite be sub in im not sure but it is to plugs that are on a wire that hang off the back lik 5in.. and i plugged the rcas there and thats how the reciever is connected i guess...

Gonna have to take 'em out anyway to seal the enclosure.

Can't stress that enough.

killakilck123. Seal the internal edges of the enclosure.

i hope i wasnt given the wrong specs on the box bcuz of this misunderstanding about the svc and dvc...???

Mine says page 6. Been looking at it for hours. Includes 1000, 1500, 2000, 2500.

 

[killakilck123]

ok i will seal the whole enclosure.. but what do i do about the receiever like you were saying? check my other msg i wrote what i have plugged in

The box was designed around the T/S parameters of the woofers you purchased. Here is the link I posted before the dimensions were given.

Head unit, receiver. You have to forgive me, this is a HT website.

You could try a y-cable. They are cheap. Just remember. 1 female, 2 male. Just like the picture. Follow the instructions at the bottom left of PAGE 6.

No worries here. I modeled the correct woofer. You are fine.

When one uses enough glue and properly constructs the enclosure sealing the edges is generally not necessary. Some people like to do this, though when constructed correctly it is completely unnecessary.

Build it correctly, take the time to do it right, save additional steps and money.

Page 6 of the manual or page 6 of the PDF?? There is a difference.
