Speaker Installation Help
Ok, I recieved a free Bose speaker from a tv set-up. Its about 12 inches long x 5 inches tall x 4 inches deep. Its got a positive input and a negative input. Thats it. Currently i've got a kicker dx500 amp powering two twelves. Can I hook this speaker up to the amp also? How do I hook it up to the amp? If not, how do I go about hooking it up to my truck?
Thanks
Thanks

I have two 6" house subs in a homemade box wired that way, one is spliced to rear left and the other rear right. works awesome.

If your talking about using your Bose Subwoofer from a Entertainment center, DONT....
It is not rated enough for car audio, you will blow the cone, and potentially fry your amp.
If you "had" another speaker you wanted to add to your amp, you would need a muilti channel amp. Say a 5 channel for example. 1 channel for each door speaker, and one dedicated channel for subwoofer.
Or run like I do, 1 mono block for subs, and 4 channel for door speakers

Any way to convert 4 ohms to 8 ohms
I dunno what you hope to accomplish with this speaker. but you will not have "bose sound" or even decent sound.
the individual speakers bose uses are the cheapest of the cheap.. its how they tune and install them that gives them their tonality.

well if he builds a proper box and seals it true then it should sound ok
If I was him I would put it on ebay and try to sell it to some one who needs a replacement woofer.
