Boon Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 How do you mean 'with another' zx1000.1... you mean put the 2500.1 on one coil and the 1000.1 on the other coil? Theoretically it would work as long as the phasing of the amps was perfect ;/ Quote 10.x volts fo' life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No you can not use two different amplifiers on one subwoofer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ISO Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Do NOT do that.No you can not use two different amplifiers on one subwoofer. X2 Its a very bad idea to use miss matched amps on a dual voice coil sub. You need to keep everything as equall as possible.

You need to keep everything as equall as possible. miss matched...matched perfectly it doesn't matter you cannon put two amps on one sub period unless they are strapped. Quote i was thinking leave the 12 sitting in the box in the hole and duck tape from the bottom of the sub to the bottom of the baffle so the sub doesnt free air. would that work?

NDMstang65 Posted July 27, 2008 Report Share Posted July 27, 2008 miss matched...matched perfectly it doesn't matter you cannon put two amps on one sub period unless they are strapped. You dont have to strap amps to put 2 on one sub...granted they need to be the same amplifier, but you dont have to strap them. Years ago i put 4 separate dei 1100d's on the old quad coil woofers..
