new amp and sub need some help
i just bought my new amp and sub, they are both audiobahn and the sub is a 10" AW1006Q, its DVC, my amp is the A275HCT. its a 2 channel amp. the sub is weird, on each side there are 2 +'s and 2-'s
so that makes a total of 4 + terminals to the sub and 4-, how do i wire this up correctly to get all the power of the amp to the sub. if someone would like to tell me how to put pics up i can show u the sub and amp. thanks

the sub didnt, and thats exactly what my sub looks like. the sub is 1 ohm i think, maybe 2, fosgate fan, do u know? i bought the sub from a wholesale internet site, all they gave me is the warrenty papers and an invoice and a sticker.

Each side is the same coil. What you need to do is meter each side to find the resistance then connect accordingly. If each coil is say 4Ohm and you need a 2Ohm load you will connect + to + and - to - , IF you need an 8Ohm load then you will connect + to - then one + and one - from each side will go to your amp. Same theory is broken down if each coil reads 2Ohm, etc.

there is the link the the site that i bought it off of, it says its 3 ohm or 6 ohm, will this work with the amp that i have? do the ohms have to match up or can i wire the sub down to 1 ohm, cause i know for sure that the amp is 1 ohm stable. im kinda a newbie with the subs, i know how to wire every thing from the H.U. back but this sub/amp combo is really screwing up everything i thought i knew.
