that didn't make any sense..... but anyway, connect the positive to positive on the sub, then connect that to the amp. Viseversa on the negative.

The amp provides 230 X 2 @ 2 ohms. If you parallel-wire the sub as defective suggested, your sub will be a 2 ohm load. You will not be able to bridge that load onto that amp, as the amp will take no less than a 4ohm bridged load. So buy another woofer of the same model and run them off the amp in stereo, 230 watts to each at 2 ohms.

Build the box so that it performs well in the worst case scenario and, in return, it will reward you at all times.
