    Setup Question

    I have a JL Audio TwK-88 and 6 of the output channels are being used by an active 3 way setup for my front stage. That leaves me with 2 channels on the TwK-88 to run my subs. I have 4 JL 8W7's and 2 JL HD1200/1 amps. What would be the best way to setup them up?

    Thanks that helps alot. The speakers being 3 ohm I can't find a whole lot about how to wire them. Should I just wire them in parallel for a 1.5 ohm load since the amps will handle that?

    Yup. The whole reason those amps are rated down to 1.5 was for the sole purpose of running 2 W7s in parallel. I would just be careful… that’s a boat load of power for the 8s. I thought 400w on my single 8W7 was way more than enough but as long as gains are set properly you’ll be ok.
