im just curious if i would blow my amp if i have my 12inch kicker 400rms and connect my 10inch bazooka tube to the amp also?[100watts or so] my amp pushes out 200rms and i want to put both for as much bass possible

i say sell the bazooka tube, and put your kicker in a nice ported box then power it with that amp.

but it seems like you'll be stressing the amp too much...and you gotta worry about impedance loads etc etc etc if you hook book the kicker and bazooka to it.

edit: forgot that you just built that box... forget what i said.

no im just saying right now i want my amp to push out its maximum on that kicker alone, but i feel it can do more, so i dont know if i should put that 10inch tube on the amp too. its a one channel amp btw.

let me get this straight, the amp puts out 200 rms, the sub can take 400 rms and you want to add ANOTHER sub to this?

throw the bazooka tube away and just hook up the one sub to it

the sub is already underpowered why would you hook anything else up to it

no. do you know how to set gains? also with 200 watts and a sealed box i would not expect any spl really. either go ported or get a bigger amp... then go ported.
