    Default 2 ohm wiring for pioneer subwoofer

    okay so i've been out of the car audio game for a while and its been a long time since i last worked with car audio wiring and im downgrading to something to simple but im caught in a dilemma ive got 1 x pioneer TS-W307D2 subwoofer with double voice coil

    i want to wire the subwoofer so it can run off my bridged mono bloc which is putting out 2 ohms...how do i wire the sub to make it 2ohms?? or is it as simple as plugging the speaker wire straight into one of the terminals? plus i dont have a working multimeter =[

    ive checked crutch field and im confused lol

    'scuse the picture as i couldnt really get a good focus on the lil diagram on the sticker, but feel free to edit my attached image to show me how

    No, you can't wire a dual 2 ohm sub to be 2 ohm in total.

    A dual 2 ohm sub can only be 4 ohm or 1 ohm. You have the wrong sub for that amp.

    The amp will run a 4 ohm load, but will make about half the power.
