Default Newbie question...

I have never done anything with car audio stuff, so here's what I got. I have 2 10" 400watt pioneers and a 800watt pioneer amp. I bought everything seperately. Now How do I connect the back of the sub to the amp. I know in the banck of the box there is (2) 2x2 cutouts. I need details and pics would be great. I know I can get great help from you guys. Hook me up... ASAP

My guess is that the 2" x 2" cutouts are there for mounting terminals in.

It depends what the exact specs for both the amp and the subs are. Post up the model numbers of the subs and amp, and the guys will be able to give you a better idea of what you can do.

If you want wiring diagrams try http://www.the12volt.com they have been quite useful to me in the past and could well help you out now.

I have (2) Pioneer TS-W28C 10" 400 watt subs and a new Pioneer Gm-5000T 760Watt Amp. the bracket on the back of the sub has to get wired to what?? Do you run the speaker wire through the wire termianal and then solder it to the sub bracket or what??

wtf... its not that hard. you wire the back of the subs to the terminals inside the box, screw your subs in, run wires from the terminals on the back of the box(outside the box) to the amp... make sure everything is in phase... like positives to positives, negatives to negatives...
