[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7868942, member: 573547"] you should have followed the general consensus on your last thread and done your homework to learn more about what you are attempting. The Audio Que 1200D mentioned earlier will be suited very well for what you need. If you bought it, you would need to wire the sub to the amp in series, The sub has 2 voice coils. They will be wired to a 4ohm load as mentioned here earlier. The AQ 1200 will produce 500 watts (@ 4 ohms)to the sub wired this way. Along with a well designed ported box, it will have the potential to be loud. Adding another sub just like the one you have to the system later wired the same way parallel to the first one will cause the amp to produce almost 1000 watts( @ 2 ohms) to both subs.(500 watts each) Then you will need to build another well designed ported box for the both of them..if I read this right, eventually you will end up with twice the cone area and twice the power....and in theory, twice as loud. It is a 1 ohm stable amp which means the way you will be using it, should provide you with years of service and also provide adequate system headroom. in your previous thread, you failed to mention the possibility of running two 15's...otherwise the advice you received would have been different on the VC configuration suggested.
