okk... I have one Kenwood KFC-W3011 (1200 peak power)(50-400 RMS) and one Rockford Hx2 Punch DVC (1000 Peak) (50-500RMS).. all wired to a Kenwood Class D mono 1800 watt amp witch runs at 500RMS at 4 ohms or 900 Rms at 2 ohms.. it is also one ohm stable.. i have it workin right now just wanna know if there would be a way to hook it up to forrrrsure not blow the subs.. thanks

Do not run 2 different subs.

LoL! g0t matching subZ?

Running two differ subs should have there own amp. Not a Great Idea to run two at the same time...... What are the ohm reading for each sub?????

The way this guy is going at it, I don't think he really cares. Just use a fuse before you kill somebody.

The RF HX2 subs were supposed to be some great subs, I'd say dump that 2nd sub and just trow the RF in a good ported box and run just the one, otherwise dump both of them and buy a pair of the same ones. Don't mix them.

why would it matter if they are 2 different subs?

Different subs can have different ohm loads per coil and will cause one to get more power than the other and can effect the sound coming from them. If they were each in their own enclosure and running off their own amp it wouldn't be a big deal. You can do this anyway, it's just highly recommended not to. The Kenwood sub you have is a single coil 4 ohm sub, but you didn't say what ohm load each coil is on the RF HX2. Makes me wonder if you have them running at a good ohm load or not. The Kenwood sub is listed as a 4 ohm coil, but it could be higher or lower, it's almost never exactly what they list. Same goes with the RF sub, the only way to tell is to use a DMM and check each one.
