Hello, I've got a wiring question..

I own two HX2 DVC subs @ 2 Ohms.. they are currently wired together to make a 2 ohm load on my amp.. Is it possible to put another sub in there that's a DVC @ 4 Ohms?

Can you refraze?
You have 2 HX2's, that are 2 ohm dvc, or svc? and the second is 4 ohm dvc?
BTW, what amp will be powering these?

Oh.
Then you can get the 4 ohm dvc, wire it in parallel to get the 2 ohms.

lol, sorry about the confusion.. I already own the 2 hx2's and I'm using the Digitalis DD1-1300S.. I have a spare sub lying around (Its a Phoenix Gold Octane R 12 Inch Dual 4 Ohm)

The two hx2's are currently wired to my amp like so..

I was wondering how you could wire (if possible) the phoenix gold sub in along with my other subs.. The amp can go to a 1 Ohm load as well..

don't add it in your system, im not a fan of mixing different kind of subs, keep them the same. but if you were to do it i would buy another amp just for your 4ohm dvc sub
