OK,

let's pretend that someone had the following:

2, 12'' dual voice coil subs (6 ohm)
2, 900W amps

what is the best way to hook these up for max power? would i use 1 amp per sub with the coils in parallel or all the subs in parallel with 1 or two amps? also, can you hook up amps in series or parallel?

please send me some tips or suggestions for this setup. thanks!

You have to give some info on what type of amps: are they mono block, 2 channel...etc and what brand/model so we know what resistive loads they can handle. And those wouldn't happen to be W12GTi subs would they...

more info:

the subs are MA Audio dual voice coil "rated" 800W max.

the amps are rockford mono d rated 900W max.

but the specifics aren't really that important. i just want to know if i should hook up the amps in series or parallel and should i power the subs each with one amp or should i put them together?
