I am finally building my new box for these subs.. Am getting ready to wire it up and noticed the subs are JL 10w3v2-d2. They are 2 ohm DVC subs. How do I wire the subs now.. Just series them and then hook one up to each channel?

Thanks
Shane.

Ninjaboy, I'm in Brantford too.

Unfortunately, if your subs are 2 ohm drivers, then the best you can do is wire the voice coils of each woofer in series for a 4 ohm load, then wire them separately to their own channel. The best you can safely manage is that 250W x 2 into 4 ohms.

What's the model number of your JBL subs?

Might be time for a new amp... if you want to get the most of those subs.
