I have two 12" Type R's that I have wired to 4 ohm, my question has to do with the jumpers. I got these on a trade, and it was wired to 1 ohm, I looked at the wiring and saw that one jumper was positive one was negative... Do I even need the jumpers to wire them or can I just use regular speaker wire?
Would it help/hurt anything wiring one way or the other?
Thanks

To clearify the question I have, I would like to know if I need to use the jumpers Alpine gives with the subs or if it even matters.
Thanks for the response Brad, sorry the question wasn't asked clearly.

You could use regular speaker wire, but why wouldn't you just use the jumpers that came with them?

I am a little OCD when it comes to speakers. I don't like having two different types of wire. The rest of the speaker wire I am using is Monster 12 Awg. I don't think it makes a difference, but if I can use regular wiring instead i'd prefer it. lol
