The speaker wire with a negative and a positive.

The gold and the silver.

When I go to wire my sub for 2ohms which part of the speaker wire to do I run from negative to positive?

I'm sure its a simple answer I'm just retarted.

From your amp you will run the positive wire to the positive on coil 1. Then run your negative from your amp to the negative on coil 2.

Then take a piece of wire (only need one side, don't need the two wires tied together), and run from the negative on coil one to the positive on coil two.

Then take a piece of wire (only need one side, don't need the two wires tied together)

I understand the first part.

Do I use the golden or silver strip to run negative to positive?

Doesn't matter, the wire is wire. The color is just to help you keep them separate.

Ah wow I feel stupid...

I just didn't want something to blow up.

Thanks for the help!
