Multiple subs off one channel?
Hey guys I have bought a 5 channel 1200w Boss Amp, and I was planning and running the fronts off of two channels, the rears off two channels leaving one channle for the subs.
I bought (2) 10" Sony X-plode 1100w Subs(might not be the best but they look cool and are in the budget). These will be mounted in a partition box in my coupe. facing the rear of the seats.
My question is how should I wire these off of the one channel?

depends what is ur amp stable to on that sub channel, are your subs SVC DVC 4ohm 2ohm. With a boss amp if its not stable and thats how you wire it your sure to blow the amp

is it the gt980?
1200W Riot GT Series 5-Channel Amplifier
4 ohms: 80 watts x 4 chan. + 150 watts x 1 chan. RMS
2 ohms: 200 watts x 4 chan. + 400 watts x 1 chan. MAX
don't go lower than 2 ohms on the sub channel. I think your subs are 4 ohm/SVC subs, so hook them up in parallel and you should be ok.

I got two for $102 shipped with a warranty, so it looks like I did ok
Just so I understand this correctly, I have two wires comming out of the sub, that should be split into two each, and then ran to the subs?
Thanks for the help
