2x 250 @ 4ohm

NOW, what is the way to get the most power with 12" drivers?

should i try to find one DVC

or

Buy the same sub that you have(assuming it can be wired to 4 ohms) and bridge the amp to 2 channels, one channel for each of the subs, so they get 250 RMS each.

sounds good to me, and yeah my sub is 4ohm (svc) so if i got another it would be the same

i was just wondering if it would be better to somehow rig up some dvc 12"s or at least one

like a JL 12w7 i could put 500 in that 2ch to 2voice coil

but thats not recommended is it...?

having a 4ch amp run a svc sub using (tech 4) 2 bridged channels?

my friend said its not recommended
