are your subs single voice coil or dual. I had a 6500d on two 8000's and it sound pretty good. But id go with a thunder 8302 on a single sub that works pretty well i did that for awhile and liked it alot.

many o world champions have used multiple woofer configs with great success, their world champions, actaully i think most world champions use multiple woofer set-ups, so you should be fine and perhaps get even better performance from 2 woofers

Using multiple subwoofers may have an effect on loading, depending on how they are setup... consider the size of the wavelengths involved, and it's obvious there aren't going to be any 'cancellations'....

I would personally rather have 2lesser subs with the same amount of juice over one sub....

just skimmed this, so forgive me if its already been mentioned, but 1 sub in a whack of airspace will in most cases, out-do 2 subs in a tiny box. Sometimes it comes down to how much room you have to work with.
