this will depend on what type of L7 you have... they are sold with a couple different types of DVC setups.

do you know what type of L7's you own? are they the 2ohm DVC or 4 ohm DVC? also, are you wiring the subs before they go into the enclosure or are they already wired?

alright -- i'll need to read up on the JBL manual, as it doesn't bridge like a typical amp, and i don't have time to do that right now. the manual shows how to do this, but i'll do my best to help you out.

for the subs, given that the JBL will make full power at 4 ohms and at 1 ohms, i'm going to go for a 4 ohm total load --

would you understand what i mean if i tell you to wire the coils in series and the speakers in parallel? or do i need to dig up a diagram?

never mind -- i'm guessing you'll need a diagram... let me find one...



lots more info on how to do this here

Not sure if this helps, but the JBL site had this wiring diagram link on the site. http://jbl.com/car/support/sub_diagrams.asp
