Hi. I just got this woofer box with an amplifier Boss 535 800W and an Audiobahn AW1000Q. I need help how to wire the speaker to the amp. The speaker has 2 sets of connectors on each side. Pictures attached. I appreciate the help. Thanks.

It would be very helpful if you were to give the impedance(ohms) of each coil on that woofer, and the power rating on the amp

The speaker has 4 ohms each coil at RMS 600W / 1200W Peak. When I opened the sub box there were 2 sets of wires. 1 set on each side but only 1 set was connected to the amp and the other was disconnected. Thanks.

Assuming that amp is 2 ohm stable, here is how you will wire the woofer. Again, I am not sure if that amp is bridgeable to 2 ohms. Please list the specs on the amp if possible I don't want to be responsible for broken equipment.
