It definately has a sub.  I was staring at it.  Just didnt see any wires, but I will find it, because I want to do it the best possible way

I have one last question.  I unplugged the subwoofer wiring harness from the amp and tested which pair of wires is for which sub.  The subwoofer is like two speakers in an enclosure, so on the harness there is two sets of speaker wire.  When I put a 9 volt to each pair one speaker moves and pops at a time, depending on which speaker wire pair i test.  The weird thing is though when I plug the harness back into the amp, no matter which set of speaker wire i touch with the 9volt battery on the subwoofer harness, both speakers in the enclosure move and pop.  How come when the harness is unplugged only one moves at a time?  Should i tap each set for the LOC or just pick one set and put the pos and neg of both channels to one subwire?

i dont recommend you start popping 9V into the wiring with it in circuit.... you can easily blow the output stage of the amp..... also, i usually use a 1.5 Volt battery for speaker testing....  which works fine.... i'd be leary of driving 9 volts DC directly to a voice coil...

likely this a DVC sub and the VC's are commoned inside the amp... just tap your LOC on either set of wires....

Will it work with the loc being connected to both sets of wiring?  I already have the panel back on with the loc connected to each set of wires..  WHITE/ white-black connected to one set, and gray/gray-black to another set.

Kevin is right- don't "pop" speakers while they're still connected.  Yes, if there's two sets of wires for the subs, tap both of them.
