I have 1 JLw3 dual 4ohm...My amp is 460 rms 4ohm stable....

How do I wire this?

Wire the sub's coils in series for a total 8 ohm load, then bridge across the two channels. The amp will output power at its 2 X __ watts @ 4 ohm rating. (Woofer wiring diagrams to the left...) For a louder sub, switch to a mono amp and wire the sub for 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.
