as seen in the pics posted by you shows you are using a jbl bass tube, you can use one more bass tube (same model).

but it is not recommended using the same model or different model sub in different enclosure in the same install (tube & box ), compared to the box bass tube sounds boomy.

why you want to for two subs, do you like more bass or one bass tube is not giving sufficient bass to blend with the fronts, and which mono amp (model #)
are you using

@karan i think i'm using 300.1 subwoofer amp, i'm happy with the affect the bass tube is giving but want more thump just want it to get better and better and better you know what i mean

abhinav.gupta88 · 1st May 2009, 21:57

The 2 together wont give a good effect.

the amp you have is rated as 200x1 @ 4oh and 300x1 @ 2oh this amp is good to power one sub, but if you want to add another sub you will require one more amp to power the sub or one powerful amp that can power both the subs.

@karan well as i think it is CS300.1 but not sure will have to check forgot the model #. anyways so how bout the JBL GTO-301.1 will that be enough to power up both subs or any amp you would like to suggest ??? please do mention the aprox price of the amp you suggest

karankapoor · 2nd May 2009, 13:48

how much you are ready to spend on the amp ?

Lancer.ized · 2nd May 2009, 19:05

@karan nothin more than 15grand

panky12345 · 2nd May 2009, 19:08

Forget everything.. I had a similar set-up earlier, just buy one more tube and hook in parallel with your existing amp.. this would yeild in drawing more power (and thump) from your same amp..as the amp would "see" a 2 ohm load!

kenwood 9104 or jbl 7001 they both cost around 15k, but after putting 2 bass tubes with any powerful amp the bass will eat up you front stage.

how are you so sure that amp will see a 2 ohms load.

Lancer.ized · 3rd May 2009, 00:53

@karan, @panky i went and found out today that i wont be needing a new amp cause i tested one more basstube and it's works great without any problems whatsoever so eventually will be testing a JBL sub woofer boxed in the coming week and deciding if the tube and woofer can jell if not then i'll just stick to one basstube.

muneemmk · 3rd May 2009, 04:42

Why not ditch the current bass tube and get yourselves a JBL or kicker Sub(s) in a ported box and see how it sounds ?

Lancer.ized · 3rd May 2009, 09:20

i kinda liked the basstube effect just wanted a little more thump thats why wanted to add a woofer

shuvc · 3rd May 2009, 10:45

Won't 2 basstubes eat up almost all the bootspace? However, you're doing the right thing by auditioning the options in your car. Let your ears decide.

ps: were you at Mani Square mall around noon on Saturday (yesterday)? I thought I spotted your car cross me in front of the mall.

Lancer.ized · 3rd May 2009, 15:58

@shuvc yes my father had an appointment with the doc at apollo i usually take the manisquare lane to reach apollo

@all was wondering if someone has used the alpine SWD 1600 (underseat sub) glix has it on the net

..because each JBL bass tube is rated @ 4 ohms, so connecteing them in parallel would result in final impedance of 2 ohms.
