Well idk how but my amp is toast so I ordered another one just like it. The question I have is if I were to get the old one fixed and diasy chain them together or whatever it is what would happen? Would I get more power to my sub, would I run the risk of killing my alt? its just an idea i was toying with so i figured id get a little input about it :D

Saving for the xxx18, xxx15000d batterys alts mids highs blah blah blah

You would be more than doubling the power.

I'm basing this off of your sig.

You were running one sub @2ohm. That amp is rated at 1100watts @2ohm.

When you chain two of them on a 2ohm load, each one will be running @1ohm - 1500watts.

So that's now 3000 watts.

So, you will also need a lot more supply power.

so to do that id need a high output alt and a really good battery or just an alt?

According to your sig, you are going to be upgrading to a XXX amp....yeah, I'd go ahead and get a big alt now and be done with it.

i plan on doin this with 2 aq2200d's ..... would it screw them up if i run it at 1ohm? and what do u think the power would be at 4ohm? like 3k?

Do you mean you have a dual 2ohm sub and want to know whether to wire it @1 or 4ohm?
