Mix matching different ohm subs

I probably will, was just making sure that this way wouldn't work first. Or maybe I'll just stick with the T1 and have it at 4 ohms sealed off facing the cabin.

Won't work!

Sure it will. For about 45 minutes.

It could work for years, or minutes. Who knows. Like many ave said, separate enclosures and paying attention is key. home stereo cabinets have a woofer, mid and tweet and after crossovers each driver will likely be a different impedance but they are all wired together. But what the o.p. wants to do is a bit different and it probably wont sound very good.

It works alright i ran two cvr 12s and a 12in comp on a single channel on my rf punch 800 for a few months and had no issues i may have just gotten lucky but the cvr where in its own box and the comp was in its own box

If hes tailgating let him pass, pull up behind him and rattle his mirrors off....

No it doesn't work alright. Anyone that does this is a hack as far as im concerned. Make sure to run your power wire through the door jam and ground your amp to the seat belt bolt too. And don't use fuses. Fuses are for pussies.

Don't forget to throw them in a 4th order and to wire it to -1 ohm

Might as well set a nice cup of water on your amp while you're at it ... Just to keep your amp cool

the power wont be equally split between the subs

if you are running 1000 watts the d4 could see 750 watts and the d2 only 250 watts

another thing that people haven't mentioned also is that they are gonna have different impedance rises and also the phase shifts are going to be different. doing that on the same amp can cause some smelly consequences.

I think you have a bit of truck stuck in your mud bro
