    I have a new amp! Eating lunch then installing, carefully thouhg

    Got it at a local shop with 1 year warranty and the guy wants me to bring it in after i install it to make sure it sounds right!

    db drive series - spa1200.1
    power output
    @4ohms 600wX4
    @2ohms 1200X1

    The guy looked at my setup and recommended this as true mono amp. So to wire my subs in parallel I need to connect all the positives from both subs and wire them to the positive on the amp. And vice versa for the negatives right?

    My bad.

    When I looked at the page, I thought it was one box with 2 subs wired or a 4 ohm load.
