WIRING GUIDELINES

It is highly recommended that you seek an authorized PowerBass dealer to properly setup, wire 
and install your woofers for maximum performance. 

All PowerBass Xtreme subwoofers use dual voice coils. The use of dual voice coils offers you more versatility 
in system configuration.  It is important to know the limits of your amplifier to optimize its performance.  It is 
always better to use your subwoofer in a mono / bridged mode if your amplifier has the capabilities.  There 
are basically four different types of wiring configurations: Series, Parallel, Series-Parallel or Parallel-Parallel.  
It is possible to change the impedance or load by how the speakers are to be wired and by the quantity of 
woofers used.

Parallel wiring a dual 4 ohm sub = 2 ohm

PARALLEL

Parallel-Parallel wiring two dual 4 ohm subs = 1 ohm

NOTE: Never connect only one coil of a Dual Voice Coil (DVC) speaker. BOTH voice coils must be 
connected to the amplifier
