What about if they're in different boxs...say 2 cvxs in 1 box and 2 q powers in the other. On matching amps...what ohm should i go with

Subs- 2 kicker cvxs 15

Amp- 1500 watt hifonics

Wires-0g

In separate boxes and amps there's no problem. As for what ohm you go with that depends on what impedance you want to be at.

I recommend sticking to 1 ohm if your amp is stable that way.

Takes 2 d4 subs to get there

inverting subs doesnt hurt at all if you wire correctly. infact it might be louder in some cases. more internal box volume (if your lacking) and coils cool off better helping with efficiency

Either they are or they aren't. Did you wire them?

And you might hear a difference by inverting because there's no displacement in the box

this brings me to add are you using a prefab box?

Yea i got it from a friend. I need to do a custom one its pretty loud but i want more. Theyre just bridged wired parrelel

Ya they stay cool noticed more window flex after inverting them

As long as BOTH subs are inverted, they can both be wired in phase. It's only when you have one in the box and the other inverted where you have to wire the one "ass out" in reverse polarity.

Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.

The difference you heard by inverting is likely in your head. Displacement didn't go up TERRIBLY much when you threw them inverted. As far as flex, I can't imagine it changing dramatically either. Unless the box is crazy under on its internal volume for what your subs need, then maybe. Those CVX probably displace .30 cubes maybe? You never mentioned which size CVX you're running
