Your amps need to be stappable, and you could hook 2 amps to one sub, use a dmm to gain match the amps and put one on each coil. But i would just strap the amps if they are capable of it. Also i think maxxonics has something called a maxxlink, i think it match the outputs of 5 or 6 amps. but im not sure on it.

Yea battery, to cap, to amp. the battery gives the power reserve to the cap, and the cap gives it to the amp. But it doesnt seem like there is a use for caps when you already have another battery.

drew028 Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 pretty sure you might short something connecting leads from different amps.. unless the amps can be strapped together like rockfords bd sync but even then your only using 2 leads................ But then ive heard of ppl using 2 of the same amps and hooking 1 to each coil (on a dvc sub) I wouldnt recommend it. Quote

No you can't do that. You must strap the amps to connect them to the same voice coil. Quote
