[QUOTE="keep_hope_alive, post: 7423149, member: 576029"] sure; power one sub from one channel and the other sub from the other channel then adjust left/right balance at the HU... but that balance change will mess with the sound from the speakers. that amp doesn't have independent left and right gains - which complicates things (better amps do). that amp is also only 4 ohm mono stable, so you can't bridge the amp to run both subs anyway. replace the 8 with a matching 10" kicker sub. that is the second best thing you can do. the best thing to do is get a pair of 2 ohm SVC (or 4 ohm DVC) subs so that you can wire the amp bridged into a 4 ohm mono load so you get all of it's power. right now, you're only getting half of the available power from that amp.
