just run another price of wire from that first wire you put on there to the other terminal. make sure you wire them properly for your amp.

it depends on how many ohms u want it to show up as.

^^^ +1 Just saying to run a wire between the two is oversimplification. You need to see how many ohms your amp is rated for and determine the best method for wiring your DVC sub. |

That is why I gave him the woofer wizard silly :lol: |
any one wanna lemme know what to do with the rem wire off the amp with out cyber slapping me

remote wire from the amp goes to the remote wire on the back of the head unit, I think it is blue with a white stripe, just check to make sure. that is needed to turn on the amp. |
Or Wire Up A Switch
|
r u shure, theres already the rca cables being run to the head, why would that wire be for that

The remote wire is so the amp will not be on all the time. It will be on only when the stereo or car is on. RCA's are so the amp know what to play. If you didnt have rca's the amp wouldnt do anything because it would be receiving no signal as to what to play. |
man that sucks thats alotta exta wire, does taht need to be a certain guage or can i use a peice of cheapo wire if its for taht it doesnt need to be realy quality does it
|
it can be rather small. its only carrying like 300ma. 18-20ga should work just fine.
|
^ beat me to it
|
If I take that rem wire a put a swith to it I can easily and safely turn the amp on and off right? I was gonna try to do in on the power source but I heard that was a bad idean if you have a capacitor
|
lol :lol:
DO NOT SWITCH THE MAIN POWER WIRE. But you can put a switch on the remote wire. |
lols, i was lazy and since it was my first time, i bought the 79$ one from walmart that came with everything i needed, 5 and 6 ga wire, capacitor, RCA, and t really tiny remote wire
|
i know the kit your talking about, its a bit of a rip,
|
an audio professional told me i could switch the power cable i was a little iffy about it, promised myself to get a switch with RUBBER round the switch, but i heard that discharging a capacitor was dangerous less done right so i gave it up,
the switch will be used to turn off the amp and sub when around GFs parents |
Your head unit should have the ability to turn off your subs. No offense but you shouldn't be screwing around with electricity.
