Should I Add Another Sub?

[djjerez702]

I have 2 12s lvl 4 wit a hifonics colossus amp but do you think my amp can push a third sub??? or should i just keep my system wit 2??

depends on the ohm load of the amp and f you will have sufficent power and airspace for the third sub. you would have to run the amp bridged since it is a 2 channel amp. so you couldnt run a ohm load under 2

well im kinda new to all this audio stuff!! my ?? is if my amp can push the 3 subs i know for sure it can push too easy but can it do da third one???

i saw this vid on youtube and it got me thinking??

being that its a dual monoblock, unless your ohm load is gonna be around 2ohms final then no on the 3rd sub imo

Do you know your coil setup? If so, go here:

Select quantity 3 and your coil setup, then look at the diagrams to find what you're looking for.

with the dual 2 ohm subs you will either get a 1.34 or 3 ohm load, you could do it if you had a big monoblock amp that put out enough power at a 1 ohm load, but with the 2 channel amp i wouldnt recommend adding the 3rd sub.
