Easy Question!

Is it fine if i power one of my subs with an 1000 watt and power the other with a 1500?

other question. for example. If i have 2 12'' subs being powered by one amp (subs same box).. and saw i get a 12'' type r (not same as other subs) and run a different amp to that sub would that still sound good... or is it not ethical to mix brands... the type r would be in a different box powered by a different amp... but would the sounds of the two different subs sound bad?

What are the other subs? Something decent? I'm kinda leaning towards telling you to sell the other 12's, and their amp, and stick the type r in a ported box with the 1500 watt amp. However, I am not sure of the RMS on the type r....

You would think that the Type-R and other subs would be 'battling' (if you will) to produce different frequencies with different amounts of power.. Not to mention the different enclosures..
