yea, it is, just make sure that when wiring them together, the amp is able to handle the load

what subs and what amp do you have?

hey thanks for the help and the welcome but i have 2 kicker 12' L5's at 2 ohms and a mono kicker zx750 i think? yah its 375 watts at 4 ohms but at 2 ohms its 750 so i hope thats good? im pretty new at all this but i think i've gotten the basics so far atleast haha.

look at the sticky in the wiring forum.

If what youre saying is right, youre only going to be getting 375W with those speakers. With two single 2 ohm speakers, you can only wire them down to 1 ohm or 4 ohm.

SVC's or DVC's

2 or 4 ohm subs?

mono amps are supposed to be used to power subwoofers. DUAL DVC's will allow you to wire your subs in many different ways to accomplish a final impedance load to your amp.

Like this and you'll get 375+ per sub
