Those are D2s.

run 1 wire from + on 1 side to + on other side.

run 1 wire from - on 1 side to - on other side.

You now have 1 + and - left on each side.

Hook the + and - to your amp and when you go to connect it to your sub, you can hook the + and - to either side you want, it doesnt matter.

The reason there are 2 + and 2 - on each side is so that you do not have to splice speaker wire together when wiring like this. They give you plenty of terminals so it's easier to do.

That's the way i just said.

Remember that Audiobahn's subs are overrated so don't try to run more than an 1800w amp to this sub because the tiniest bit of clipping will cause what you are smelling.

It also depends on how long you've had the sub. IF it's brand new, it could be excess glue. Turn it down just a little and play it like that for a couple weeks then return the volume to where it was. If it still does it, your overworking it thermally(too much power or clipping)
