wires from the amp go to "IN +/_"
Woofer +/- goes to your mid range speakers
Tweeter wires to to tweet - and ONE of the Positives
Start with -3db, If the tweet is too loud, go to -6, if its too quiet go to 0db

No. Woofer and Sub woofer are two different things
the Woofer is your midrange driver

Thats only a single input crossover.
It just has several terminals to adjust the tweeter output (most newer crossovers use internal sliders)
