K im a total newbie honest and have an old amp and sub I had from another vehicle. Anyway I have a Single Pioneer ts-w 1000 DVC
Dual 4 ohms voice coils. I also have . 600 watt max 150 Nominal.
I also have a Pioneer GM-x922 to power it. I am wondering what the best way to wire this sub up for this amp. And how to install it. Im a newb sorry. Best I could find so far on this amp was this url spec wise.

It depends on how you want to listen and if the amp can handle 2 ohms.
I found a manual here https://www.eserviceinfo.com/download.php?fileid=29579
the last page says you can run bridged at 2ohm. So positives to positives and negatives to negatives would work.

Ty for your help So you mean run a wire positive to positive and NEg to neg pn the voice coil mounts then attach to rear speaker mounts pos yo pos and neg to neg right?
Ty for the manual also I looked for hours honest. I found some but they wanted $.

I don't think this amp can be driven bridge at 2 ohms. If you only have one sub. best to contact pioneer tech 1 800 PIONEER https://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Products/CarAudioVideo/Amplifiers/Other/GM-X922?tab=B ------------- Luis

Is up to the installer to test all wires with a DMM whenever possible.

U guys know more than me so I will wait but how should I wire the inside of this single pioneer ts-w 1000 cause Im stupid and only used one voice coil and realize that now. and it's wired wrong. I have to take it apart in other words again. Hey I soldered the conections shrink wrapped everthing. Lucky main connection is screw on. so add wire to secound voice coil is what aI understand? on each pos and NEg if at 2 ohms? or set it different? I'll rewire it No probs re solder it all of it, but I want to do it right the first time and maybe I van get some good help.
lucky I can read at least.I am humble enough to accept good advice. I have that speaker and that amp to drive it.
I honestly ty for any help. Why I love the internet. Worlds biggest data base. It's not like im reading a book. I'm getting peoples personal experience. Not something you can find at any book store.

I for got to say also that the amp actually does say bridgeable if that has any importance to this topic. Have to say I had a couple beers
