Ok. Will get them checked asap. But typically the power and ground wires are factory installed, right?

Yes... it switches off and then on again.

Oh... I didn't know this fact.
The initial plan was to put a JBL 1264 sub. The enclosure was a simple one built by Sound Factor guys, without any ports.
When tuning, I asked him to show me the output of both the subs, and I liked the output of the later. Preetam said that there will be no problem running the GT51204BR with this monoblock.
But again, if a 4 ohm sub is running off an amp of 1 ohm, it means the full capabilities of the monoblock are not being utilized, right? Does this in anyway affect the quality of the sound? Maybe the max. output power may be lesser, but still, I never set my sub volumes to max. in the first place. So, is this impedence mismatch a big problem?

Yes. They are 90W speakers and for now running on a HU that supplies much lesser. That is the reason I am planning for a HU upgrade in a couple of months.
