JL 500/1 wiring question

I was wondering how do I hook up two subs to my 500/1. Do I put the wires coming from my sub into the extra MONO Output or do I put both of them in the same terminal. I have two 12 svc subs.

It makes no difference, the amp sees it as the same thing. Whichever way is easiest really.

yup, just make sure you don't put a great load on the amp, because it can fry persay...what subs are you going to be pushing if you don't mind me asking

two POLK MOMO MM2124 they're 400RMS and 800 Max I thought the JL can handle a lot so ohm load shouldn't be a problem? 4ohm impedance on my MOMOs I think.

Either way, you can do one sub per (+) and (-) output, or both subs onto one. Its mono, just bridgeable, so either way it should see a 2 ohm load.
