two different amps to 4 subs


Recommended Posts

I would save up and buy a larger amplifier to power all drivers.

well the amps give different amounts of power. Even if the amps were absolutely identicle they would give different power if you did not gain match because every single piece of electronics on earth cannot be created equal. But you are not talking about the same amp, you are talking about 2 amps that do different rated power from factory specs which is a big big no no.

so even if the gains are a little off from each other it can cause cancellation?

Your subs will work against each other. They will not make optimum power that way. They are meant to work together as one unit to accomplish their goals.

if you can get the larger amp for cheap, get 2 and use them. Using different sized amps for stuff that shares the same box is a no no

OP, you'll be fine. the reason your research has yielded no results is b/c no one has a killer setup like yours. get that extra bass.

if nothing changes, nothing changes

what if i have two more of the same subs but in a fiberglass enclosure in the back facing the front off the new amp? lol just brainstorming here. would i still get cancalation if theyre not in the same box if the box is tuned 4-5 hz higher?

sell everything and start over.
