2chan amps bridgeable Qs?

[slow6]

I've got 2 amps, they are 2 channel bridgeables.
Is it possible to hook them both up to this 1 10" sub?
thanks

Possible yes... probable no. First, are they the exact same amp? Next, does the subwoofer have dual voice coils? Model numbers of everything involved would be great.

the 2 amps are exactly the same JENSEN 300 w LXA 2-chan bridgeable
the sub is a 10" Kicker Comp
Let me rip this apart and see if its DVC, but I HIGHLY doubt it.

I heard that its bad to hook up 2 amps?
thanks!

[slow6]

amps have high input, low input, "L & R Pass",

the knobs/switches are:
Level, Bass Boost, LPF, HPF, and x-over

[slow6]

the sub says 10" MDF
and says 4 ohm
doesnt say the wattage of the sub...grr
i'm sure its not a DVC

[slow6]

im guessing its like 300 watt rms
maybe 600 watts max?

i'm guessing this sub is really old, cause all the kickers I see online are not like this plain jane one.

Kicker comps are single voice coil i beleive.
I also had two 300 watt jensen 2 channel bridgeable amps.. and i had them hooked up to a 10" kicker L5 Square , 4 ohm dual voice coil.
That works because of the dual voice coil but probably not a good idea to do to a SVC.

yeah, the amps are screwed into the sub box (as if they have both been used at the same time).
I dont think they knew what they were doing though...

10" MDF?!? What the hell does that mean? [img]tongue.gif[/img] The Kicker comp model numbers are like C12, C10, etc. And the Kicker comp now comes in DVC configurations. Not sure when they changed that, but I thought it was all SVC too. So..... how many + and - connections are on each subwoofer? Two pair? Or one pair?

But me thinks you're wasting you time. It's not easy to properly run two seperate amps on one subwoofer. Certainly not worth your time with the equipment you have. Not trying to sounds like a d!ck, but it's true. :(

Yes, he's right.
Unless you know what your doing it is very hard to do two amps to one sub. . and can harm the sub if it's not done perfect.
If it's a single voice coil Kicker comp 10" sub. . it should sound decent with 300 watt' Jensen amp bridged.

I would honestly try that before you attempt to hook two amp's up.

[slow6]

its 1 sub, and this kicker comp is older than you think
its SVC 1 + on one side, 1 - on the other side
Just didnt want to underpower this sub with such ****ty Jensens

[StrtRacer98]

Yea. SVC.
I would try one amp first.. if it doesnt sound good then maybe try something different.
