Why do people never recomending having 2 or more subs connected to a amp terminal?

im not really sure how to word this. more than one speaker wire connecting to a single positive or negative terminal. like having (2) 400 watt subs to a 800 watt amp.

It depends if you're talking specifically about ohm loads. If you wired 4 dual 2 ohm coiled subs to one set of outputs you'd get 0.25 ohms and unless the amp was something pretty special it would go pop...

you could also get a 1 ohm load with four dual 2 subs .......... wire each sub to 4 ohm and parallel them to the amp for a final ohm load of 1 ohm.
