I believe that you can wire it side by side... i dont reccomend it, for the sake of being safe with a $750 piece, but i dont see a problem with it... if you look at the connector, its has a "c" "(?)" "c" "v"... both c's are bridged to each other according to the drawing, so you should be able to plug the negative into either c and it shouldnt make a difference. But just to be safe i would go with the proven answer that i said earlier. But the Positive should only go in the "v" port
