    Default dual voice coil sub instalation quik question.

    the sub has 2 inputs for power.
    what i was wondering is 1 input for power and the other to bridge to another sub?
    or because its 'dual voice coil' do both need to be powered ?
    thank you

    both pairs of terminals need to be hooked up to an amp, hence "dual" voice coil. that means theres 2 coils, both need an audio signal.

    depending on the voice coils impedance you will need to wire them in series, or parallel to best match your amp.
