multiple sub wiring question

[snicka 10+ year member]

I currently have 2 JL 10W6v2 (Dual voice coil) wired in parallel (2 Ohm load) connected to a JL 500/1 and 2 JL 8W3 (Dual voice coil) wired in series (4 Ohm load) connected to a JL 500/5.

I have a pair of Focal 5" subs that I would like to connect as well. They are single voice coil, 8 Ohm speakers rated at 80W nominal/180 max.

What would be the best way to hook them up to the existing setup?

Thanks!

I mean I'm sure it can be done, and maybe it sounds good, and maybe you like it, but it's quite silly to say the least bro.

It's a show car and why is it silly? There are plenty of multiple sub setups out there.

And I asked for wiring help (that is why it is posted in this forum), not opinions on whether you like it or not.

So how about we keep this on topic and discuss the best way to wire it.

I would appreciate it.

Multiple sub setups yes, but the people who have experience and know what they are doing use the same type of subs. That's not slight against you, but it explains what we are thinking.

What are the actual voice coils on the 10's and 8's?

94Mazda626, the 8's & 10's are all DVC subs.

And thanks for being the only one slightly interested in helping.

You should seek professional help with your install!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

southwest713, that is part of my question.

Which amp would be best given what I already hooked up to them?
