Hello I need some help with the wiring of my subs to my amp. I have two Power Acoustik PW3-12H subwoofers and a JBL BP600.1 amp. I tried wiring each sub parallel down to 1 ohm and hook them to each of the channels on the amp but it blew both of the fuses. What is the best way to wire my subs? Both wired in series to 4 ohm to each channel of the amp? Here is a link to the specifications. Any help would be great. Thank you.

Hello and welcome to the12volt.

Your amp is a mono amp meaning it only has one channel. It may have two sets of output connectors but they are connected together. Use either POS and either NEG and connect your speakers this way. Be sure to properly set your gain and if you are not sure how to do that check the Hot Topics forum.
