Would it be worth it?

Right now I have a 10" P3 shallow in a .45 cuft box, running 300 watts@4 ohms. Basically I'm just wondering if it would be worth it to get another sub, wire my amp down to 2 ohms and give them each 200 watts? They're rated for 300 btw.

I'm thinking I'd be lucky to get 3-4 db from this. I'm not looking to bump, though. Mainly I just want better fill at lower volumes, and a little help hitting the lows better. You guys think the difference would be worth it?

I can get another driver for around $120..

bump... seriously, is two subs on 400 watts vs one on 300 watts going to be worth the money?

Anyone?

**** that setup entirely. Sell it, and get yourself some quality drivers. Single 10 ported, maybe 2 10s sealed. What kind of space do you have to work with?

I don't have the money to redo everything. I'm not as crazy about this stuff as some of you guys, right now it's pretty much good enough for me. I know it sucks compared to what everyone else has but I'm happy with it, for what it is.


When I save enough money up I'm eventually going to try to do two 8w7s forward firing with 1000 watts... but that's way later.

yes it will be worth it, just be careful about clipping the amp
