two JL 12w6v2's on a JL 500/1v1 amp?

[RobertR 10+ year member]

So i was thinking about adding another JL 12w6v2-d4 to the one I already have. My question is will my JL 500/1 handle it or will it Chernobyl? Will I have to wire the subs in a series/parallel to save my amp? How much difference is there between 1 ohm and 1.5 ohm?

What is the RMS rating and what are the ohms of the speakers? How many coils per sub?

Wire the coils in series (so each sub is 8 ohms), and then each sub in parallel (total 4 ohms).

Each woofer will receive 250w out of the maximum recommended 600w.

I suggest you get a second 500/1
