Mixing brand of subs?
#1
Hey guys, just wondering if mixing subwoofers will create unwanted sound? What I mean is I have a pair of 2x Audio Bahn 12's, and what if I was to buy 2 more of a different brand, so i'd have 4 12's in total (a pair from each brand)
Will this cause issues or do you think I would you get a desirable sound?
cheers.

Don't run two different subs in the same chamber. The way that each sub responds to the same music will be different, and can mess with its response.
Don't run two different subs off of the same amp. Each coil is wound differently, and will respond differently to electrical current. This would make the amp "lopsided" having two different types of loads on the same amp.
And as for what was said by getnbig, I can't verify that but it sounds right in theory.
What you could do is change cross-over frequencies and have one set of 12's running as subs (crossed-over really low 40hz-60hz) and the other 12's running as woofers taking care of frequnecies 50-60hz to 125hz-150hz.
