    I have a JBL GT5 A3001 amp

    I have 2 JL audio 10" subs. Not real sere what kind they are. The only writing on the back is on a small sticker FJ034.

    What would be the best way to wire these up?
    The amp will be driving the 2 subs only.

    According to the stats on that amp, it is stable at one ohm, so if those subs have dual 4 ohm voice coils, then wire all four voice coils in parallel, to load the amp at one ohm for maximum power (300W RMS). If each sub has a single 4 ohm voice coil, then still wire them in parallel, but you will be loading the amp at two ohms, so it will be putting out less power (225W RMS).

    Given the size and shape of the Camaro's trunk, I would look at mounting the subs in an isobaric configuration, which would require wiring one of them out of phase with the other.

    Thanks but these are not in Camaro. These are my Daughters. Camaro has Infinity 10's.
