Do you know if 0 AWG ring terminals will fit in the positive and negative of this amp, or will i need to do custom terminals?

Yes need to do a little drilling though and same on 5500 onynx but the 5500 will hold 00 gauge

I don't have a schematic but the negative terminals measure zero ohms between them. The positive terminals show a high resistance. So I would say it is common negative. The two mounting pads appear to be isolated from the rest of the circuit.

I didn't have a ring terminal either. Black to ground, red to power. A ring terminal would just be an easier way to bolt or screw the ground to the chassis.

Hello. Have a look st the Trex website or contact them directly. But all cables are centre negative. The plugs are the standard 2.1mm type plus one to power a dunlopmlp wah

Yea it wilk work id recommend getting a bigger amp tho. I got two of these wired down to 1ohm with a planet audio ac5000.1d so they are gettin around 1500rms each at 1ohm and man do they pound

Yes, they will. Be as careful as possible when removing/inserting. While rearranging/cleaning up my cabling, I had to remove the positive lead from my amp. I accidentally nicked the ground gauge reducer, and let me tell you...it wasn't pretty. Thankfully, I didn't blow anything. A very noticeable surge mark is left as a reminder.

It is, but 1) like Adam said you should buy separate sub speaker wire 2) make sure that those big round terminals will fit on your amp. Mine needed the small spade terminals. Not a big deal, but didn't notice until I had my car apart. 2 Long walks later and it sounds great.

First if you haven't bought 8awg speaker wire I would recommend not buying it, (http://www.audioholics.com/audio-video-cables/speaker-cable-gauge) for these reasons and the simple cost/difficulty finding compatible parts; secondly if you did buy 8 awg speaker wire because you've spent the equivalent of a new car on your speakers and receiver and wish to continue the trend I'd do some research and find a brad that is acutally designed for use with 8 awg, (http://www.avsforum.com/forum/28-tweaks-do-yourself/290438-where-buy-banana-plugs-accept-10-gauge-speaker-wire.html) 10 awg seemed to be the largest most audiophiles were going and they had to do alot of work just to get the connections to fit into banana plugs; Thirdly unless your speakers are more than 50' from your receiver and your running a 4 Ohm load 10 awg should fit the bill quite nicely and save you headaches and money.

The amp has one channel with 4 terminals (2 positive and 2 negative). It's to make wiring a bit easier. (Example: I have two 12" dual voice coil subs at 4 ohm. I have two separate boxes. In each box I have the subs wired in such a way that the sub presents a 2 ohm resistance to the amp. Then, connecting each sub to its own terminal on the amp-versus wiring the boxes together and then to the sub-I present a 1 ohm load to the amp without all the mess)

No, these amplifiers only have four push type connectors for a single set of load speakers. My speaker cables are quite fat, so I had to remove half of the conductors before they fit.

yes,,you have to bridge your subs in a pro box with a single port (black and red) speaker terminal..from amp negative speaker output into negative on box,,and same for red,,from inside box bridge out to positive and negative on your subs.

it will fit fine but I used 12 awg with Sewell banana plugs on my Marantz amp. the longer your run the larger gauge you need. this becomes important around 25-50ft.

NO! I had to work at getting 4/0 wire in the connectors. I believe they make one for 1/0, just make sure it specifies it.

I don't have one, sorry. Look in your manual, all you have to do is match the voltage and amps. I don't have my original one either.

Yes just attach each wire to your positive and negative leads or sauter the connections to the positive and negative leads in the socket. Choice is yours

I didn't use the connectors. I work with wire almost every single day, and didn't see the need for them. I ran 14 awg, stripped the wire and twisted it with my fingers and put them in. Had no issues.

you need at least minimal x-over cap. 4uf/63v non-polarized on the + terminal so as not to overload the amp output.
