[QUOTE="Steven, post: 91618, member: 544311"] Yes he would have to feed the same signal to both coils. but all thats needed for that is a couple of Y adapters he should end up with: Right channel RCA --> Y-Adapter --> both right channels on amp Left channel RCA --> Y-Adapter --> Both left channels on amp This way the Amp is receiving both right and left signals, and the subwoofer is getting the same signal in both coils. most 4-channel amps are just two 2-channel amps in one case. So using this set-up you could also use 2 separate amplifiers, as long as their RMS and MAX output are the same JUST MAKE SURE THE GAINS ARE EQUAL. [/QUOTE]
