To connect a dual voice coil subwoofer to a mono amplifier, the best method is to wire the voice coils in parallel if the amplifier supports the resulting impedance. This configuration will lower the overall impedance, allowing the amp to deliver more power to the subwoofer. If the amp cannot handle the lower impedance, you can wire the coils in series, which will increase the impedance but reduce the power output. Always check the specifications of both the subwoofer and amplifier to ensure compatibility.

To often mount a subwoofer you will need your desired subwoofer box of choice. Once you have decided what type of box you want, then you will need to take your subwoofer and insert it into the subwoofer hole. Then you screw it down. Once this is done you take your wires and run it into the subwoofer. An amplifier is not necessarily needed, but you'll definitely want one. You will then take your amplifier and connect it to your cars battery, and then also ground it to your car.

The amplifier that powers the subwoofer is located just above and to the left of the subwoofer (rear passenger side underneath vent window).
