Only if your amp is high current , and or stable at 2 ohms mono, 1 ohm stereo. If your unsure don't try it, the amp might shut down and possibly be damaged.

For example Phoenix gold, Soundstream, and JL Audio amps are high current. Kenwood, Fosgate, and Sony amps are not.

well how do I hook up only one sub in a 150x2 amp???

What kind of amp is it?

 

[Rockford_4ever]

It is a crappy Pyrmid amp:banghead:

If the amp is rated 150x2 you can hook up one sub to each channel (stereo). Or you could bridge the amp (mono) to power one sub. I would just hook up one to each channel, It might not be as much power but it will sound cleaner and probably louder.

well I only have one sub it is a 8" mtx and I have no more space because it is a ford ranger single cab
